Just picked this one up - big fan of political pieces, expecially well done snarky ones by Kozik (like some in his recent Eddie Vedder series). I'm actually working on a Presidential print set - easy to come up with Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt, Kennedy, and any recent ones, but not a whole lot of Franklin Pierce or James Polk prints out there (just throwing out some ideas Frank, if you happen upon this thread). But glad to get a nice one of Tricky Dick in the collection.

I'd put this in the release section if there was one.
Received this today. Print quality is awesome. Bit of a gorilla grip on both ends but should flatten without any issues. Don't know why some galleries still fold the kraft paper in on the ends (how hard is it to cut the kraft the length of the tube?). But thankfully the kraft was taped, the print didn't slide, and tube was long enough to give the print plenty of room from contacting the folds. For someone whom coffee is their life blood, I couldn't be happier with this print.

Henry: No, but I seem to feel better when they're not around.

Wish 4' tubes were used, but it looks awesome. No creasing, but am going to give tricky dick some time to loosen up before I flatten. Can't wait to hand this up in the Kitchen.

I meant " not ' , 4 foot tubes would be pretty crazy, or I guess really just a box.

Timc, it does not take too long to flatten, except for the side they started at when rolled. I am still letting that one end relax, but have flattened everything else. Thanks again for the heads up on this one.

I made a flat file for all of my XL stuff out of heavy cardboard and velcro. Works like a charm.

I agree. Sadly, I gave mine as a gift to my department head, who I think didn’t really appreciate it.

I'm waiting for one last move(?) before I frame this. At the very least, it will get tacked up somewhere.
