注意事项
On occasion, Christie's has a direct financial interest in lots consigned for sale. This interest may include guaranteeing a minimum price to the consignor of property or making an advance to the consignor which is secured solely by consigned property. Such property is offered subject to a reserve. This is such a lot.

False Start I and False Start II (see the following lot) were printed using the same lithographic stones but with variant inking resulting in two very different images. In both, the straight bottom edge-line supports the slashing strokes of lithographic inks. The heavily built up surface is filled with tumbling, stencilled words that both arrest the eye and challenge conventional left-to-right reading.
Robert Blackburn was the Master Printer at ULAE who worked with Johns and many other post-war artists in their early forays of lithography.
