This is an authentic, hand-pulled serigraph by the late, legendary British artist who defined the visual identity of the punk movement.
Far more than a punk image, this print is a profound piece of political and cultural critique. The term "Blood Diamonds" explicitly condemns the colonial acquisition of resources linked to conflict and exploitation, highlighting the ethical cost of the Royal Family’s inherited wealth. It utilizes Reid's signature Situationist-influenced décollage and cut-and-paste aesthetic.
Medium: Original 3-color hand-pulled serigraph (screen print).
Paper: High-quality recycled 1200 micron grey pulp card.
Colors: Pearl black, yellow, and magenta on pearl silver/white.
Dimensions: 43 cm x 62 cm (approximately 17 x 24.5 inches).
Edition Size: Limited Edition of 250.
Authentication: Hand-signed and numbered in pencil by Jamie Reid; includes his unique, hand-drawn Druidic/Occult glyph.
Authenticity & Handmade Characteristics
Each print is unique, with intentional "defects" such as offsetting, smudging, and marks inherent to the hand-made production process by "specially untrained technicians" at L-13 London. The piece is in mint condition, stored flat, and is considered an investment-grade artifact held in collections like the moma.
