Printed with cloth wipe by Paul Peisley. Gary Shead decided he wanted more contrast, so re-printed by Basil Hall with hand wipe (blue-black). "NOTE:- the first 10 were then circulated by Gary, so remain part of the edition!! We believe 1/10 -10/10 are Paul's darker ones." Studio One printer's worksheet.
