Description

Lennon signs an Alphabet Page from his Bag One series

Limited edition artist’s proof 22 x 29.25 print entitled Alphabet Page, signed at the bottom in pencil, “John Lennon.” Lennon produced this poem as an introduction to the Bag One portfolio. Framed to an overall size of 22.75 x 30. In 1969, as a wedding gift for Yoko, John drew the Bag One Portfolio - a chronicle of their wedding ceremony, honeymoon, and their plea for world peace in the Bed-In. The suite also contained several erotic sketches. The Bag One series was first published and exhibited in January 1970 at the London Art Gallery. On the second day the exhibition was closed by Scotland Yard and the erotic lithographs confiscated. The complete set of Bag One lithographs is on permanent display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In fine condition. Oversized. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RRAuction COA.
