Signed on the print in white pen by Halsman and marked 1/100. No such edition ever appeared, and this is likely a unique print made for some exhibition. In 1968 Halsman was working on a photograph of the Maharishi that was superimposed in this manner, and possibly this was an experimental photograph using that technique, so probable print date is 1967. (Thanks to Halsman family for some helpful information.)
