Bartow scratched the plate sometime between 2013 to 2015, and Seiichi Hiroshima printed the posthumous edition in 2018. Seiichi Hiroshima writes about this work: "'1/2 Blind' is the last work of his that I printed. A year after his death, I had to close our South Beach workshop. When I was closing my workshop, I found this plexiglass plate of '1/2 Blind' hiding beside our working table among a bunch of plexiglass plates used for monotype. It was so nostalgic that I felt like I was able to see Rick for the first time in a while. The following year, in 2018, I converted my friend Erin's garage into a workshop and printed this work there. I remember on the fourth day after I started printing, I couldn't bear to look at his sad face on the plate, so I stopped printing halfway through and only made an edition of 12."
