DESCRIPTION:
|
The handkerchief was the invite to Haring's first "Party of Life," celebrating his 26th birthday. According to the Keith Haring Foundation there were about 5,000 printed; given the nature of the item and of the event, it is unlikely that many survuved. A search of art and print auction records indicates that none has appeared at auction. Fine
