About
This is the rare Colophon page that was originally included in published portfolio editions of Andy Warhol's iconic 1981 Myths, a series of 10 color screenprints published by Ronald Feldman Fine Arts, Inc., New York. The 1981 Myths portfolio includes 10 color screenprints: The Shadow, Superman, Mickey Mouse, Dracula, The Star, The Witch, Howdy Doody, Uncle Sam, Aunt Jemima and Santa Claus

The rare Colophon page provides complete documentation for each of the 10 Andy Warhol Myths 1981 color screenprints including Printer and Publisher information as well as documentation of the respective number of screens used to create each iconic Andy Warhol screenprint in the suite of 10 limited editions.

Recognized as the requisite justification of authenticity and documentation for the rare 1981 Andy Warhol Myths Portfolio edition of 10 screenprints, only 270  portfolio colophon pages were ever printed, matching the exact number of Ads Portfolios printed in the various editions. Because the colophon page was only included in the original published Box portfolios of Myths screenprints, many Colophon pages have been thrown away or misplaced. 

Joseph K. Levene Fine Art, Ltd., has sold portfolios and single impressions of virtually every Andy Warhol screenprint ever published, including numerous unique trial proof screenprints published in a unique color combination. Joseph K. Levene Fine Art, Ltd. also has colophon pages for sale from other Andy Warhol portfolios including the rare set of 10 Endangered Species. 

Lender Museum Exhibitions
In 2018 Joseph K. Levene Fine Art, Ltd. loaned multiple Andy Warhol works to Andy Warhol—From A to B and Back Again, the Andy Warhol retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art, which subsequently traveled in 2019 to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and in 2020 to the Art Institute of Chicago. Most recently Joseph K. Levene Fine Art, Ltd. loaned three George Condo paintings to the George Condo Retrospective at the Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris from October 10, 2026 to February 15, 2026. Organized in collaboration with George Condo, this was the most significant museum exhibition of George Condo’s work. Presented thematically, the 200 work retrospective included 80 paintings, 110 drawings and 20 sculptures.
