Red Grooms "Discount Store" 1971 Hand Signed Lithoprint Personal Gift 1978

On offer is a print by the iconic artist Red Grooms called, "Discount Store." This print was originally published in 1971 and I believe presented as a gift, hence the prints hand signed date. See details for all basic information. This print comes framed in the original frame it was purchased in. It has not been opened up. The frame is black with Plexiglas. There is no matt. The print has one small ping - see last picture. This must have been done during framing.
