Patrick Nagel’s “Hanson” lifetime limited edition poster serigraph. Pencil signed and numbered in Mint condition. Any Patrick Nagel fans in New Jersey ? Hanson is an investment firm New Jersey. Hanson was one of the first to take on Mirage’s offer to fund a Nagel poster. Karl Bornstein, Mirage President and owner was friends with Mr. Hanson. The business investment worked well and the Hanson firm earns free advertising some 40 years later, not to mention the “cool” factor of the poster still being hunter today. After Bornstein died, I purchased #1/250 and sold it to a dear friend of the Hanson family. I was happy to recently learn the rare Hanson #1 is hanging with Hanson now. In my opinion it is one of Nagel’s most art deco posters to date. And for me “The Hudsucker Proxy” film starring Tim Robbins and Jennifer Jason Leigh always comes to mind. Simply underrated and must be seen in person. This poster is lucky number #13 of the only 34 lifetime limited-edition posters released in May of 1980. Edition is 250 s/n exist and 1000 signed in screen.
Pencil signed/numbered in Mint condition available. Price upon request.
