What is your latest proud print acquisition?
Perfectly said. I can't believe this conversation is going on. If anything it gives it personality!smellmysocks73 wrote:The Frankenstein test prints were FREE...part of a prize pool for a MS fundraising raffle.
From the moment they were listed as prizes, they were represented accurately. For those folks that didn't take part in the raffle/fundraiser, I suggest you read the comment from graphicjim in finneganm's quote a few posts previous to this one.
Congrats on winning!

Regardless of cost or how the print was acquired, what makes that a test opposed to a reject?
^^^yep
you win pretty much a one-off version of one of the most collectable/desirable prints of recent times in a charity auction, and people are pissed because it's not mint?!?
the mind boggles sometimes

Yeah, I'd take that off your hands.stoffel wrote:So my frankestein testprint i won in the MS fundraiser arrived today
and while i fully understand it is a testprint i wonder what i can do with this? it got 4 big tears in the middle of the image? is there anyway i could fix this or something?
or should i just recycle this for old paper
the fold in the middle doesn't really bug me, but 4 holes in the middle of the image?
i had bought test prints and mono prints before but never got something like this.
John is also a member of EB. I contacted him through a PM here and he was quite responsive.halftonegraphics wrote:If email fails, there's a group on Facebook called Silkscreen Poster Fans and Artists. Join that.

Some salty people around here. Its a test print, I have plenty of them that have rips and dings, thats why its a TEST PRINT. My huge burlesque test (thanks again to mistersmith) has some little rips and tears here and there. Who cares. If you want a mint one, then buy one.
That print is awesome and I think lots of people here would be VERY happy to have it.
Also note, this isnt so much at the OP of the poster, but all the people complaining about it.

A finished print that is destroyed isn't a test it's a reject. I would challenge Tong to explain what makes a damaged print a test.
just a foil for me today, thanks
