on the reverse of the frame, this work is signed by Keith Haring with the artist's signature and monogram, dated FEB. 7 1989 and inscribed Andy + I went to Sean Lennon's birthday party in 1984 at Taverne on the Green. I think it was his ninth birthday. On the way there Andy gave me one of the "ties" he had brought to give to Sean. They were the discarded "trimmings" from the edges of his paintings. He called them "ties", signed them, and gave several to Sean.
