A Signed Picasso Poster

Bought for: $14.

Sold at: $7,000

Sometimes your love for the tacky things will net you some coin. This gentleman, Zachary Bodish, was looking for something kitschy when he found this poster advertising an exhibit of Pablo Picasso. He thought it was a great reproduction, so he grabbed it for $14.

After he got home, he did some research on the poster and found some red marks on the bottom of the poster. Turns out it was Picasso’s signature and this was no ordinary poster. He took it to art experts and they discovered that it was a linocut – a process where Picasso had carved a design into linoleum, which was then inked and pressed onto paper. This poster was created for the annual potter show in the city of Vallauris, France in 1958. As there were only 100 of these posters made, and this one was number 6, it made it all the more valuable. Odds are, any of the single digits were handled and reviewed personally by Picasso to ensure its quality.

Bodish sold the print for $7,000.
