This print is old—made between 1910 and 1940. It’s a linocut or woodcut on tracing paper. The Victoria and Albert Museum keeps it safe. The colors you see weren’t printed. Mackey painted them by hand after printing, on the back of the paper. He flipped the sheet over so the paint touched a plain oatmeal backing. His prints never went big. They stayed small proofs only.
