In Response To: Need help identifying a Kabuki Portfolio (Jeff)

What you have is the limited edition German produced Kabuki Portfolio. Published by my German publisher INFINITY.
It is from a limited run of 990. It should have a certificate that states this in German and ENglish with my original signature on it.

The exact number of prints in either 48 or 50.
It is the entire issue of KABUKI - DREAMS (translated in German) and also included a number of many of the Kabuki covers also as prints.

The printing and production values are perfect.
It is one of my favorite Kabuki Items.

The original retail price for this was $120. But as it is very hard to find at only 990 printed, i don't know what the current market price is.

: I picked up a Kabuki item at a convention this weekend I
: hadn't seen before and I was hoping David or someone
: else could tell me more about it.

: It is a Kabuki portfolio which appears to have been
: produced overseas. ( It is 26" by 17" in
: size with the prints inside being slightly smaller ).
: Some of the prints inside have text on them that I
: believe are in German. It came in a really cool giant
: red box with three Japanese Symbols imprinted on the
: top of it in black ink. Inside there are atleast 20 to
: 30 prints. I haven't counted all of them exactly yet.

: The prints are of Kabuki covers and pages from various
: series/issues. The box that contains the pictures had
: been damaged but the prints inside were all fine.
: Unfortunately the dealer couldn't tell me anything
: about the portfolio. In fact he acted like he didn't
: really know it was a portfolio of Kabuki art. It was
: like he didn't know what he was selling.

: Besides knowing a little more about this item, does
: anyone know how much it originally retailed for?

: Thanks for any help.

: Jeff
