This work was estate-stamped using a replica of Packer's signature after her passing. In a note from the executor of her estate, we were informed that Packer only signed prints that she sold directly or were consigned with galleries, reserving the rest in her studio. Following her death, remaining impressions - still unsigned - were given the replica signature as a posthumous mark of authenticity. This is one such impression: entirely printed by the artist and unsigned as usual, now authenticated in her stead by the estate.
