Below text taken from The Black Rat Press...

The D*Face is an etching that could only be made by utilising chemicals that have not been used for around two thousand or possibly twenty years. The chemicals were so dangerous the printers had to wear Mylar suits that made them look like paint-spattered astronauts, and old, craggy Italian masters came out from retirement just so they could see the proccess with their own eyes. Unfortunately, as we didn’t have any spare Mylar suits, they inhaled the fumes and promptly went blind. But when we described the print to the blind Italian masters they all agreed that this print was worth the cost of their sight. Who needs sight, anyway? They said. Then they thought about that a bit more and realised sight was probably one of God’s most beautiful gifts to mankind and immediately tried to kill us. But we fought off the angry, baying mob of blind Italian masters with our impressively built-up forearms, and ran, clutching the D*Face prints, back to the stone safety of our Battersea railway arches.
The print is a hand-coloured etching of his Iwo Jima reworking from the recent Death & Glory show on 400grm paper and looks so good we’re calling it art.
And we did all this for you. For your walls and for your children’s children’s walls. Because we are good people. Because we believe in art. And because we care. Yet we don’t want thanks. Well maybe just some rich, gooey, homemade cakes like the ones old people send in to the commentary team on Test Match Special. Yes, rich, gooey, homemade cakes, and possibly a few demonstrations of love on a Friday night, that kind of thanks is okay with us.

Nice to see one of the original forum members still posting 13 years later - I remember this print well and it is truly a classic of DFACE. Good luck with the sale !!!!
