LeRoy Neiman's "Portrait of a Lion" is a beautiful piece of fine art that is available in a wide variety of forms from postcard to limited edition serigraph, ranging in price from $5.95 to $24,000.
Luther Lassiter is supposed to be the shooter and Babe (Arthur) Cranfield his opponent.
If the print is pencil signed and numbered in the margin outside the image, it is most likely a serigraph. If there is a signature within the image AND a pencil signature, this is called a plate signed lithograph. If there is no pencil signed signature, it is most likely a poster. As a major dealer, LeRoy only signs serigraphs in pencil. Everything that is a poster is signed in pen or felt pen. Also a poster is smaller than the graphic. The poster is obviously 1 dimensional, and the serigraph looks like it has paint on the paper. In addition, the poster is an offset image of the original. So, you can see the actual brush strokes as in a photo. Whereas, the serigraph is reproduced by the printer and therefore, you will not see actual brush stroke marks.
