This great collector's item is framed in wood. The framed dimensions are 19 1/2 X 25. The drawing is in good condition with some discoloration; the frame shows some wear. Copyright, Burris Jenkins. This original work of art is protected by copyright laws. A serially numbered, destructible eggshell tamper-proof seal is affixed to the Drawing and it is accompanied by a tamper-proof, forge-proof, copy-proof Certificate of Authenticity from Elaine's Fine Art. The COA also has a matching serially numbered seal affixed to it. Any tampering with the seals causes the seal to fragment, making it impossible to reuse, further insuring the authenticity of the item. The purchaser is also recorded as the registered owner. If the item is a gift, please indicate the name, street address, city, state and zip code of the recipient, before making payment, so that the COA can be registered to them.
