"Gateway to the New World" 
 
 Lithograph, S/N AP15/75  

 
   

"Christopher Columbus Discovers America" and "Gateway to the New World" constitute a Suite of Two prints entitled "Dali Discovers America."  They were published by Levine and Levine in New York and pulled in Paris in 1979. They are described, technically, as "lithographs of original gouaches and original lithographic remarque by transfer paper," on Japon Nacre paper. "Christopher Columbus" is numbered (A/P 15/75) and signed in pencil; paper size is 20 7/8 X 29 3/4 inches, and the impression is 17 X 22 7/8 inches.  There is slight damage on verso-top where hinges were removed.  "Gateway to the New World," (also titled "Tarot: the Jack of Swords") is identically matched to "Christopher Columbus" in markings,
paper and image size, with similar hinge-removal damage on the back
plus a 3/4 inch tear on the bottom where there is some slight crimping.
A 1982 appraisal is available on both prints.
