About This Item
This is the Expo '86 Commemorative Poster commissioned by the organizers of the world's fair, and by the City of Vancouver for its 100th Anniversary.
The theme of Expo was Man in Motion.
It was designed and executed by Canadian artist Steve Woodhouse.
It is on paper and it is entirely in 24k Gold Leaf.
There were only 5 created in gold leaf; this is one of them.
A limited edition set of prints was also made.
It reads (also in Braille):
Vancouver Commemorative
Global Achievements of Human Interaction
A People A Place An Event
It is in a gold metal frame; 20 1/4" x 26 1/2"
Covered in glass.
The frame and glass make it heavy.
UPS will charge about $60 to pack it for shipping.
But the frame is ordinary gold-colored metal; if I remove it from the frame and send it in a tube, the price will drop by $100.
PLEASE NOTE: THE STATED EXPECTED SHIPPING DATE APPLIES ONLY WITHIN NORTH AMERICA. THE SHIPPING CHARGE APPLIES TO NORTH AMERICAN BUYERS, OR TO INTERNATIONAL BUYERS WHO ACCEPT SURFACE MAIL. DUE TO PANDEMIC-RELATED SHIPPING ISSUES, UNLESS YOU PAY TO HAVE YOUR ITEM DELIVERED BY AIR, OR BY A PRIVATE CARRIER, DELIVERY CAN TAKE FROM 2 TO 5 MONTHS.
