    The Baer Catalogue states an edition of 50 plus 15 artists proofs. Orozco states that the work was never editioned. Our work shows no edition - but this was common amongst Picasso’s artists proofs which were often merely signed and not annotated as Artists Proofs. The print is scarce but we have found, online, other examples with numbering out of 50 so we take the view of Baer on this..
