Sir Peter Blake, R.A. (b. 1932)

"The first two souvenirs were made in 1968 as my contribution to Aspen 7 'British Box'. Souvenir No.3 was given to David Hockney, and then the series continued spasmodically ... They were made to be given to the person to whom each is dedicated. " (see Exhibition catalogue, Peter Blake: Souvenirs and Samples, London, Waddington and Tooth Galleries, 1977)
