Jolino Beserra here. I'm David's husband. I gratefully Thank You All for the orders and kind words celebrating David Byrd's career. His legacy lives on because of you. I wanted to announce that I have a little over one box each of pre signed paper by David for folios and single prints before I switch to the new format of a printed signature and a custom embossed trademark caricature that has been designed to certify authenticity from the Estate of David Edward Byrd. Peace Out

"TEMPLE OF DREAMS" AMERICAN CINEMATHEQUE - 1985

$75.00

I created this poster with my partner, Jolino Beserra. He did the painting of the building in reverse on a blackline film positive. I rendered the sky on board and the film positive was mounted on top of this. The type below the image, which is gloss varnish on deep red-violet matte silkscreen, reads “Temple of Dreams.” The Cinematheque was raising money to restore the Pan-Pacific into a multi-theatre complex with film restoration facilities, restaurants, and a giftstore. It was unfortunately destroyed by an arson fire before the dream could be manifest. Unavailable elsewhere.
