Printed from the original negatives by Paul Ruscha and Philip Wegener in Venice, California, in 2006 and 2007 on Arista variable contrast fiber semi-matte paper, each print is mounted on museum board and is presented in a custom-made, cloth-covered clamshell box, and comes with a signed and numbered colophon.
