Hi Karen
This is actually a print that is normnally signed Le Blond & Co. I say normally signed as it considered to be a ‘fake’ i.e. someone trying to pass this off as a genuine Le Blond.
Thank you! Does this print have a name?
Hi Karen
It is normally called “Please ring the Bell” but as it has never been found on a mount presumably at some stsge somne one has made up the title. It just looks so different to anything else LB & Co printed.
I am in process (a couple of years task) to write the story of Le Blond & Co. ALB takes about 3 lines but RLB about 3 pages, an intertesting chap, out of interest why do you refer to him as ne’er-do-well… would be very interested to hear via hear or direct on sales@georgebaxter.com
