Acme1

Something for The Beatles fans out there, although you'll need to be an affluent fan of the Fab Four to collections all of these Acme The Beatles Collection Pen and Card Case sets, which celebrate 50 years since the band was formed.

Each set limited to 600 worldwide and each design is based around an original Beatles album, so the one above is, as you've probably guessed, A Hard Day's Night. Also released in the first batch is Please Please Me and With The Beatles, with other albums following over the next couple of years.

In the set, you get an enamel rollerball pen and business card case with the album design featured, as well as a presentation box which replicates the album cover and is individually numbered. Available for pre-order now, £119.99 is the price. See over the page for the packaging.

Opus1

We're not going to pretend these are cheap, but if you have money to invest and want to invest it in art, Sir Peter Blake has two new limited edition prints on the market – Vera Puzzle and 24 Flags.

Both are part of his 'Found Art' series, as well as as being giclee prints with a silkscreen glaze and in a signed limited edition of just 25 of each. The flags one, as you can see, is a collage of Union Jack images, while the Vera Puzzle artwork, which is pictured over the page, is inspired by vintage Mickey Mouse imagery.

Both are sized at 36 x 42 inches and both are available now for £2,500 each.

Not one new Shag print, but a pair of vintage-style prints, going by the name of Blue Bed and Purple Chair.

Each print is three colours and sized at 9 x 13.5 inches, signed and numbered, as well as being limited to a run of 200.

Slightly different for Shag, so certain to sell out quickly, these 60s-inspired prints are available now for $125 for the pair.

Rhodesia Was Super! limited edition serigraph by Derek Yaniger

Posted on | Leave a comment

Rhodesia

Apparently, 'Rhodesia is Super' was a travel slogan for holidays to the country (which is obviously now Zimbabwe) back in the 1970s. It's also the inspiration for this Rhodesia Was Super! limited edition serigraph by Derek Yaniger.

It's a four colour silk screened serigraph, printed on heavyweight archival paper and measuring 17 x 24 inches. But above all, it features those great, vintage-style cartoon images.

The print sells for £65, with part of the profits going to the Zimbabwe Agricultural Welfare Trust.

eBay watch: 1988 Austin Mini Designer Mary Quant Edition

Posted on | Leave a comment

Quant

We have featured one of these in the past, but as they come up so infrequently – and we think they're a collectible of tomorrow – we're flagging up another Austin Mini Designer Mary Quant Edition.

This one dates from 1988, one of around 2,000 Mary Quant-designed Minis made at the time. But we suspect a good number have been scrapped since then. The ones that survive don't cost a fortune right now, but in time, they just might rise up in price.

The seller doesn't give lots away, but it looks like the outer Quant detail and that distinctive striped upholstery are all intact. Indeed, it's described as being in 'excellent condition throughout' with 'no rust, dents or scabs' you'll be pleased to know. Mileage isn't mentioned, drop them a line about that. Right now it's up for £1,800.

Update: Amazingly, another one has just gone up too, it's a bit cheaper as well. See details of that one here.
