My Don Stepped Outside also has a funky fade... but it's actually pretty cool. Probably won't put it on the wall, but that's mainly cos I don't have much space at the moment.

Here are mine, the Silent Night black ink test, Silent Night is one of my favorites of Dan's. The Let It Be is missing some ink in the top left area and the Brothers and Sisters looks great just some dings...

That Silent Night is dope! :drool: How'd I miss that?!?

Let it be still looks good, adds character. I got a Brothers and Sisters too, was hoping it was one of the 5 uncut test prints where one of the colors is missing (picked one up from a guy awhile back) but it's the same as yours- just an uncut regular version. So if anyone is looking for the individuals set...

My Taking came with a crease across 2/3 of the print a couple inches up from the bottom unfortunately :( . The skeleton's black is a little patchy in places too, but I think it adds charm. Hopefully I can minimize that crease.

Yeah, that silent night must not have been up on the site because I would have jumped at it given the chance. Def one of my fave maccarthys. Thanks to everyone for posting pics, love to see these older ones.

My Don Stepped Outside looks pretty much perfect, but brothers and sisters has a pretty good set of smudges across the top left, tryingt o upload photos but photobucket doesn't want to co-operate for some reason

Did a "Keep It Secret, Keep It Safe" ever make it up on one of these sales? Just curious, I'd like to grab one of those someday.

Thanks, I didn't think I had seen one, but I was under the impression that he was taking down the ones that sold out, so wasn't sure if I had just missed it. But looks like I was wrong, so nvm :oops:

Wow, C. Your Carbon Atom looks much cleaner than the one I received. Mine has a big rip out of one corner, lots of dents on the top and bottom, and a big smudge. And no lightning, printed or otherwise. The other two I received are much cleaner though.

I do love Dan's older works.

Oof! Was the carbon atom priced accordingly? I'm still waiting for felt good to be lost and some of these posts are freaking me out.

WHAT BURNS NEVER RETURNS •

I’m packing up and moving my shop this month! My new space is a bit smaller than my current one and it is essential that I downsize. I have accumulated around 14 years worth of scratch/dent/misprints that I just don’t feel good about throwing away.. but I’m totally fine with BURNING them!

Before I toss them in the fire, I would like to offer a chance for you to rescue some prints from a fiery end. Prints range in price between $5 - $50 (based on condition) + shipping and are sold as is.
