Cash Is King

Bortusk Leer

(Book)

 

Hand embellished by Bortusk Leer – this edition is unique and extremely rare!

 

The storming success of last summer’s Cash is King – The Art of Defaced Banknotes book, which was launched at The Saatchi Gallery with a sell-out exhibition of framed and affordable money art from all over the world has led to a massive demand for the hand-embellished versions!

The limited edition of 1000 hardback Cash is King books, all signed and numbered by artists Bob Osborne and Carrie Reichardt, found its rightful place in the permanent collection of The British Museum and The Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge as well as being sought after by countless galleries and private collectors. So what started as a fun project has gathered pace and become a piece of Art History.
