This is one of 750 hand signed lithographic posters, published in 1982 to celebrate the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics . (though only approx. 200-250 are said to have remained). The Olympic Committee commissioned 15 nationally known artists, including Raymond Saunders to create unique designs to promote the event. In 2017, the Olympic Museum in Lausanne Switzerland featured all 15 lithographs from this portfolio: “The 1980s were marked by non-conformism, eccentricity, audacity and joie de vivre,” say the exhibition organizers, “All these elements are clearly expressed in the stylistic vocabulary chosen by the organizers of the 1984 Games in Los Angeles, with its fun approach and acid colors.” This work is unframed and in fine condition; excellent provenance as it was acquired as part of the complete portfolio of limited edition hand signed Olympic prints, all held in the original box with colophon and authenticity documentation. This will be the first time the print has been removed so authenticity is unconditionally guaranteed. Excellent condition; never framed. All of the works in this rare portfolio, including this Saunders lithograph are unnumbered, but published in a limited edition of 750 hand signed works. (only approx. 250 said to have survived) Copyright 1982 Los Angeles Olympics Organizing Committee, Published by Knapp Communications Corporation.
