This print and that in the following lot are vintage prints from the Playboy archive of a shoot published in 1976, '200 Motels, or, how I spent my summer vacation' -- a fictional Florida road trip, from Key Largo to Key West. Newton did not keep the negatives and made no further prints. In 2002 he made greatly enlarged facsimiles of the published pages that were shown in his exhibition 'Yellow Press'. See: Newton, Yellow Press, de Pury & Luxembourg, 2002, pp. 8-13.
