'Billy Rainbow' - A signed, limited edition silkscreen print, part 8 of 12 in Sir Peter’s Blake's box set 'Replay Portfolio' and based on Blake's work from the early sixties. Available to purchase individually or as part of the Replay Portfolio. Printed at Coriander Studios, published by CCA Galleries.
'Billy Rainbow' highlights Blake's fascination with wrestlers and boxers, and also his sense of wit and fun. The words on the print read, "BILLY RAINBOW is the son of the fabulous BABE RAINBOW (World Champion in 1973), and although it has never been proven, it is reputed that his father was the legendary Ebony Superman. He is the long lost twin brother of the current Ladies Heavyweight Champion of the World, Bobbie Rainbow. Billy was adopted at birth by a tribe of Comanche Indians (for a short time as a young man he wrestled as Billy Two Rainbows), and it has only recently emerged the he is the son of Babe Rainbow. Billy and Bobbie are currently wrestling as a tag team, and are on an extended tour of the Far East."
