We mentioned these were on their way a short while back. Well, now you can buy the In the Long Run: 30 Years of the Great North Run series of prints, the work of Sir Peter Blake and also known as the Running Suite.

As we said before, the prints are part of a collaboration between Bupa Great North Run Culture and Opus Art, with Sir Peter Blake producing a portfolio of 10 limited edition prints which will celebrate 30 years of the Great North Run. Each image is a giclee print with silkscreen varnish, measuring 13.5 x 16.5 inches and from a signed edition of 75, all featuring objects or images from the Great North Run archives or sourced from the North East.

You can order either the full set (in a cloth-bound case with colophon page) or individual prints from Opus Art right now. The individual prints sell for £705 each.

The images will be on display at an exhibition at the Great North Museum from 17th July – 17th October 2010, with editions of the prints for sale exclusively through Opus Art.
