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 screenprint in the suite of 10 limited editions.Recognized as 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.
