I just pulled a Ken Taylor CFTBL from a frame so I could attempt a sale when... I noticed tiny clusters of fibers grouped around the lettering.
I'm certain these are paper fibers, but I guess the question is why did this happen?
The print was without a matte, so it was up against the glass. No warping or any other problems.
Could this be caused by the print being held against the glass? Is this normal?
And the big question, how does this impact the value of my print?
Thanks in advance for the help!!!
Did my print sprout hairs?

I wouldn't say worthless but definitely worth less. Could probably still get $50-60 is my guess.

For Sure, I wouldn't either, nor could I in good conscience try to sell this at market value.Grateful69Phish wrote:Personally I'm not buying a print with that issueBookofJohnmon wrote:Is it worthless now?Grateful69Phish wrote:Stuck to glass
