Auction end date: 2/26/2012
Sale price: $149

Note: there is no legitimate edition of 375 for this print from the Hommage a Albrecht Drurer print suite (Field, pp. 66-67).  This is likely a Gilbert Hamon "after" published circa 1981 (Field, pp. 247-8).

Suspect "Loup Edition" Les Diners de Gala Litho: Les Delices Petits Martyrs--SELLS AGAIN...AND AGAIN!!!

Auction end date: 2/25/2012
Sale price: $1325
Details: 75 x 56cm BFK Rives paper; No. 45 of 195.
Note: the paper size and the edition of 195 is consistent with an edition advertised circa 1978 by Jean-Paul Loup (published by Lavigne) subsequent to the original distribution of 395 on Rives (Field, p. 110).  Significant controversies and contradictions surround this extended edition of prints, and not all signatures are by Dali's hand (Field, p.235).  In my opinion, the signature pictured on this print is a forgery, making this print a counterfeit.
