Karsten Schubert in the Catalogue Raisonné states that the Elongated Triangles were produced to raise funds for Riley’s 1971 retrospective and that each individual work could be bought at the ticket desk for a mere £30 each one from the series being sold at the different venues around europe. This being the case hardly any full sets were sold, making it an incredibly rare sight to see a full set with the same numbering on the open market.
