More Variety from Peter Harrington

Dylan Thomas, Kim Novak, and James Joyce, from Peter Blake.

Dylan Thomas, Kim Novak, and James Joyce, from Peter Blake.

Speaking of Peter Blake, who worked with Cooper on the design of the Sgt Pepper cover, item 10 is a print of his Dylan Thomas, Kim Novak, and James Joyce in New York, from 2013. Why these three I do not know, but the image is riveting (shown on this page). Blake is one of Britain's best known pop artists, building a reputation even before the 1960's revolution and still going today though having passed the age of 80. £2,000 (US $3,261).
