Bullitt 5 x 9 linoleum block print on chine collé
Continuing the theme of Hollywood icons is macho cool Steve McQueen from the pinnacle of his career in the movie "Bullitt". The foreground print image is carved into and printed from a linoleum block. Since the movie is famous for the car chase/driving sequences, it seemed appropriate to have him driving the green Mustang in the background. Below is the print without the chine collé for comparison.

These look great! I'm glad to see the blog active again.
BTW, Bullitt has one of the best opening credit sequences in film. Seriously...the same guy that did the credits for Dr. Strangelove.
I love this print!
