On the verso of the lithograph is a stamp with the initials MB. After an in-depth internet search, it appears that this stamp might belong to an individual by the name of Mark Buckelew. According to Mark Buckelew's LinkedIn page, he received a Printer Certificate in Fine Art Lithography from the Tamarind Institute in 1981 and was then Print Shop Assistant at Naravisa Press between May of 1981 to August of 1984.
Since this print was completed in 1981 and corresponds with the time frame that Mark Buckelew was the Print Assistant at Naravisa Press, there is strong evidence that the MB stamp found on the verso of the print belongs to Mark Buckelew.
Mark Buckelew will not be included as a collaborating printer listed in the constituents for this work because we cannot 100% confirm that it was him and that we do not know his actual role in the printing process.
