PACKING
We try to keep costs down and we are also aware of the effects of packing on the environment.

Where possible we try to recycle packaging materials. If you require new pristine packing boxes/envelopes (say for a gift) then please let us know.

Large posters are usually rolled and sent in firm tubes - if you require flat packing for any large item then please let us know on ordering:in such cases, there may be a surcharge to cover the extra costs.

Other items are send in appropriate packaging.

INSURANCE
We will cover all shipments with full loss insurance up to £250. Thereafter a surcharge is needed.

We will consider sending items without full insurance but this is at the purchaser’s decision and risk. If you wish us to do this then please indicate in writing what you want us to do.





Unoriginal Sins is an established venture trading in the field of the contemporary and modern avant garde movements from 1900 to the present day. We have a vast inventory of books, documents, artworks, ephemera, object multiples, LPs and other digital media as well as representing major collections from significant artists.

We trade almost entirely online - we purchase new material all the time and offer regular clients email lists (which you can sign up to here) of new arrivals. Soon after the distribution of those lists, new items are placed online so it is worth returning regularly to this site to see what new things are for sale.

It may be possible to visit in person and see our inventory but that is by appointment only - please email us. We can supply references for new clients should that be required.

We are always looking for new material to add to our stocks - we have a desiderata here but we are interested in all material that is similar to our core interests. Do get in touch.

CERTIFICATE. 2011.

£1.00


CERTIFICATE
Edinburgh: Show & Tell Editions, 2011
21 x 30cm, full colour digitally printed certificate with silver foil stamping on heavy paper. An unusual print multiple in that the certificate gives the owner the right to forge the autograph of the composer Frederic Acquaviva on any record or CD produced by him without any further permission and that forged signature to be regarded as just as “authentic” as any actual signature written by Acquaviva himself.
The certificate is “signed” by Acquaviva on the bottom in pencil but, in actuality, is not really signed as the “Frederic Acquaviva” signature is actually itself a forgery signed by the publisher as instructed by the composer.

In addition this limited edition of 30 signed and numbered copies is priced unusually – the “purchaser” merely pays for the shipping and is recompensed for buying the work by the payment of an one Euro coin by the publishers ‘Show & Tell’ on behalf of Acquaviva.

An unusual print multiple  – a conceit which is envisaged as not only comment on the financial benefits of buying artworks for speculation but also a blatant attempt by Acquaviva to sell more records and CDs.

Price is therefore: – 1 euro i.e. an one Euro coin will be included with the certificate as payment to the purchaser for the risk of ‘buying’ the work. Shipping is free but at the cheapest rate and if the work is lost in the mail then no replacement will be sent.

NB: Certificates will be sent out on a first come, first served basis and the edition is strictly limited to 30 numbered examples of which Show & Tell will distribute/’sell’ 18 copies and Acquaviva will distribute/’sell’ 9 copies with 3 copies to be retained by artist and publisher and not for sale.
