Death NYC Nike Air Jordan Bulls Red Splatter $1 Dollar Bill Pop Art COA 2021
ORIGINAL DEATH NYC DOLLAR BILL ARTWORK | SIGNED & AUTHENTICATED
What You Are Getting
An original Death NYC dollar bill artwork on a circulated US $1 Federal Reserve Note. The composition features Michael Jordan in his iconic Bulls jersey overlaid on the bill's central oval, surrounded by aggressive red and white paint splatter — a Pollock-style drip treatment applied to sneaker culture's most reproduced figure. The chaotic splatter pattern reframes the GOAT debate as Death NYC commentary on cultural saturation: when an athlete's image becomes more reproduced than the currency it's printed on. Bulls red dominates the palette throughout — a different format from typical clean Jumpman silhouette pieces.
The bill is hand-signed and dated 2021 on the reverse by the artist in black marker, and ships with the official Death NYC Certificate of Authenticity card bearing the embossed gold-foil "Death & Co" seal. Each piece is a unique, hand-numbered work — a real piece of US currency transformed into a collectible Death NYC original.

About the Work
Death NYC's dollar bill series is one of the most coveted entry points into the artist's catalog. Each work begins with a real, circulated US $1 Federal Reserve Note — chosen for both its symbolic weight (the world's reserve currency) and its physical canvas (the cotton-linen blend that resists degradation far better than standard paper). Onto this base, Death NYC overlays mixed-media prints featuring iconic figures, brands, and pop-cultural references, transforming legal tender into a portable critique of celebrity, value, and consumer culture.
Because each bill carries a unique serial number, no two pieces are identical even within the same edition. Every dollar bill artwork is hand-signed and dated on the reverse, and supplied with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity bearing the artist's embossed gold-foil seal — the same authentication standard used across Death NYC's primary market output.
About the Artist
Death NYC is a New York-based pop and street artist whose work has been exhibited internationally and is held in private collections across Europe, Asia, and North America. Operating in the lineage of Warhol, Banksy, and Mr. Brainwash, the artist mashes up consumer iconography — luxury logos, Disney characters, comic-book heroes, and pop-music idols — into dense, irreverent compositions that interrogate brand worship, mortality, and the commodification of culture. Death NYC's prints, posters, and dollar-bill works are released in tightly controlled limited editions and have become a fixture of contemporary street-art collecting.

How does Gauntlet Gallery verify authenticity?
Every piece is reviewed against available authentication documentation before listing. For signed prints we cross-reference COA issuers, publisher records, edition counts, signature placement, and known release details. Items that cannot be documented to our standard are not listed.
How do you document condition?
We photograph each print under consistent lighting to show the actual paper, frame condition, ink saturation, and any aging or edge wear. Condition notes describe observable marks, foxing, deckle wear, or print aging in specific terms — not vague labels like "good." If a piece has a flaw that affects collectibility or value, we say so explicitly. Request additional close-ups before purchase.
How is the print packed and shipped?
Prints ship flat between two acid-free rigid boards inside a corrugated outer mailer with rigid corner protection. Larger prints over 24×30 may ship rolled inside a thick-walled tube with archival tissue. All shipments are insured for full value with tracked carrier service. Framed pieces ship in custom-cut wood crates with foam edge protection. Signature on delivery required over $500.
What documentation is included?
Original COAs, publisher certificates, third-party authentication letters, and Gauntlet Gallery condition reports ship with the artwork. Specific documentation for each listing is noted in the product description.
Why buy from Gauntlet Gallery instead of a marketplace?
Marketplaces give access but leave buyers to judge authenticity, condition, pricing, and seller credibility alone. Gauntlet adds a trust layer through detailed photos, item history, condition notes, pricing context against 300,000+ market comps, and fake-risk review. Every listing is prepared by the same curator who sourced and reviewed the piece.
