Work Summary & Collector Notes
Skeleton Cat (Green) is a 2022 screen print, the green colorway numbered to 30 at 30 x 22.5 inches. The image anchors a multi-colorway release that also includes red, blue, orange, and yellow runs of descending size, plus a group of 13 one-of-a-kind variants.
Collector notes: Green; saved release record states an edition size of 30. Edition-specific signature, numbering, and stamp details were not stated in the saved release record. Verify signing and numbering against a documented example of this edition.
Why It Matters
Colorway releases let collectors build sets or chase the scarcest hue, and Skeleton Cat is structured for exactly that. The green edition of 30 is the largest and most available; the yellow at just 5 is the rarest, creating a built-in scarcity ladder within one image.
Collector Perspective
The green run of 30 is the reference colorway and the easiest to acquire. Collectors targeting rarity gravitate to the yellow edition of 5 or the 13 one-of-a-kinds. Because colorways vary sharply in size, confirming the exact hue and its edition count is central to any acquisition.
Historical Context
Produced in 2022, Skeleton Cat reflects the street-art convention of releasing a single image in multiple colorways at staggered edition sizes. The macabre-yet-playful skeleton motif fits Hijack's blend of dark humor and accessible iconography.
