The poster faithfully reproduces one of Roy Lichtenstein’s most iconic pop art paintings, featuring a distressed blonde woman in comic book style, accompanied by the text: "M...Maybe he became ill and couldn't leave his studio!" Below the image, the text reads: "Roy Lichtenstein: M...Maybe, 1965." At the bottom of the poster: "1979 The Tel Aviv Collection and Ludwig Collection, Cologne. Printed in silkscreen from a painting titled M...Maybe. Produced by Limatis, printed in Israel by Shaul Zay Studio, designed by Varda Raz." This first edition poster is highly scarce, distinguished by its silkscreen printing process, which enhances the depth and vibrancy of the colors. Unlike later reproductions, this original 1979 printing was produced in Israel, making it a rare and desirable piece for serious collectors of Lichtenstein’s work and pop art ephemera.
