I came across this several years ago in a junky antique shop in Yellow Springs, and snagged it because the owner didn't know what she had. Now I'm in a bad position and I need to sell it. So...
It's # 16 in a series of 40 of the print 'Proclamation' by Sid Chafetz that was done in 1965 I would like to sell. It's already framed (as you can see) and is in fantastic condition. I've seen this print on sale for $800.00 elsewhere, but I need the cash so I'm willing to go with the best offer by Saturday, July 25th.
Leave me a message here or email me at saraadrian1@ gmail.com & make your offer. If you can't pick it up you must pay for shipping. I do have a paypal accout so you can pay with a credit card if you like, or pay cash or with a money order. No personal checks.

Sid Chafetz
A well known Columbus artist, Sid Chafetz (1922-) received his training at the Rhode Island School of Design; L'Ecole Americaine des Beaux Arts, Fontainebleau; L'Academie Julien, Paris; and with Fernand Léger, Paris. He started teaching at Ohio State University in 1948 from where he retired in 1982, although he continues to maintain a studio there. He has had numerous exhibitions in both the U.S. and abroad and his works are in the collections of many major museums including: the Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati Museums; the Museum of Modern Art in New York; the Smithsonian Museum; the Pierpont Morgan Library; The Dahlem Museum, Berlin; and the New York Public Library. His output over his long artistic career has been almost entirely prints whose subject matter has explored politics, portraiture, the university community, personal biography, and the holocaust. In a catalogue produced as part of a retrospective exhibition at The Ohio State University Gallery of Fine Art, Henry Klein wrote, "For those of us who know, have worked with, and/or have studied under Sidney Chafetz, his life and art flow from the same wellspring. He is a "mensch."
