Product Description
Andy Warhol and his mother were avid cat lovers, and had a house full of cats all named Sam, except for one named Hester. "25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy" was a self-published and hand-colored book that Warhol made for friends in 1954. It contains exactly 16 cats named Sam, plus the blue one. This, plus the typo in the name, are due to Warhol's great love of the mistakes generated by his artistic process.
