Why It Matters
The Savage World title belongs to Faile's recurring adventure-and-pulp thematic vein, echoing the lurid paperback and comic sources the collective mined throughout the 2000s. The (II) designation places it within a numbered series of variants, and the Lenox 100 stock ties it to Faile's heavier printmaking editions of the period.
Collector Perspective
At an edition of 14, Savage World (II) is scarce. Collectors following Faile's Savage series value the variant numbering and the hand-finished differences between sheets. The Lenox 100 substrate and the clarity of the signature-and-number stamp are standard evaluation points for this era of Faile output.
Historical Context
Faile's Savage-titled works reflect the collective's fascination with pulp-adventure imagery, translating vintage comic and paperback tropes into contemporary screen-printed editions. The 2007 Lenox 100 prints represent a mature phase of this studio practice.
