In the 1950's long before he had invented himself as Pop Art's pioneer, Andy Warhol was making ends meet as a children's book illustrator, still unable to escape poverty. When his mother, Julia Warhola an artist herself found out about her son's destitute conditions she boarded a bus in Pittsburgh to move into Andy's tiny New York apartment intent on taking care of him.
The two shared a love of cats so strong that their home was filled by a multitude of felines, all but one named Sam ; the sole outlier, Julia's most beloved companion, was named Hester. in addition to cat rearing, the mother-son cohabitation eventually led to a series of creative collaborations and an adventure of self publishing.
In 1954, Andy and Julia released a limited edition artist's book ungrammatically titled " 25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy ", featuring Andy's signature blotted line hand watercolor drawings in vibrant Pop Art colors and calligraphy by Julia. oddly enough, there were only 16 rather than 25 cats portrayed and Julia accidentally missed the letter " D " from " Named ", but Andy decided to keep the title as it was. The book that was conceived as an edition of 190 signed and numbered copies, privately printed, most of which Warhol gave away to friends and clients as gifts.
The rare out of print framed collector's offset lithograph print measures 14 3/8" W X 17 1/4" H X 7/8" D.
