    Andy Warhol advertisement
    Can anyone provide me with information regarding this item?
    The attached is entitled:
    "Success is a job in New York..." The early art and business of Andy Warhol. Newport Harbor Art Museum January 21 - March 18, 1990.
    Mexican Flowers c1961 (for vogue) ink & gouache on paper 29" x 23"
    Collection Alison Bisgood Harwood.

    Also, would this be considered something of value? I was unable to find anything like it in my research of Andy Warhol art. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hi, Dove1!

    Yes, it would be something that would have some monetary value. But, how much monetary value it has would greatly depend on what someone would be willing to pay for it.

    Is what you have the original or a print, please?

    Thanks!

    Hello Clough
    Thank you for taking the time to respond.
    Can you help me understand what I would look for to determine original or print?

    Well.. that is a nice print, the one you get in a museum-shop

    Yes, it is most likely a print. However, is there an original signature on it and is there a number for the print, please?

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately no :-( that's in the print as well

    ... by the way, Andy W. died in `87, so he can't sign a poster from the 90's

    Thank you for your support. At this time I think I will recall my question and let this piece continue to hang on the wall like it has for the past 15 years or so...
    Take care and May God Bless &
    GOD BLESS AMERICA

    I do apologize for the unnecessary frivolity that was occurring on this thread, Dove1! As such, I've removed that type of content from this thread.

    Prints and/or posters depicting the work of Andy Warhol can have a wide range of monetary value. There are those of them that also can have a considerable amount of monetary value depending on their size, how they are produced and who produces them.

    I didn't find the particular one that you have. However, you'll find others similar to it by clicking on the following links.

    @Dove

    That's exactly the way to deal with it - it's a smart motive of one of the greatest (US) artists ever - no matter what its worth, its nice and no need to move it, leave it where it is and enjoy it when you your eye catches it ;-)

    All the best for the big electtion today, hope this time the US-citizens think and look twice before the vote for any ********* again.
    May the voters get lead by whisdom this time.
