Focusing on the Timeline of The Blue Guitar, analyze the March 1977 – September 1977 about the 1977.
March 1977 – September 1977 Editioning by Richard Spare and Dany Levy in London, who had first choice of the images, with Jennifer Melby and Prawatt Laucharoen editioning in New York. Each image is handprinted from two copper plates and inked by hand from a selection of five colours, red, yellow, blue, green and black.Once editioned, the 40 plates were "cancelled" by punching holes through them, destroying their ability to produce the artis' intended image. A "cancellation proof" was then printed for each image to prove that the plates were no longer able to produce the artist's intended image, and so assure buyers of the rarity of the limited edition. On behalf of the artist, Petersburg Press then donated both the Cancellation Proofs and the forty cancelled plates to the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
