nice, some random newsprint with articles covering the court case and incorporated into the pic might be cool? Big copyright logo dominating front and center?

In November of 2007 Obey did a collaboration on a fixed gear bike w/ Fuji. Only 300 were made, 150 of that 300 we're shipped overseas to the UK. The MSRP I believe was around $1500-1600, unless you knew someone on the inside at Obey.
Luckily for me, my X- girlfriends fiancé works for Obey Clothing, and luckily we've become friends over the years. I ended
up getting the bike at cost, which was just under $600.
(the Brooks saddle and all the gold components alone would have cost me what I paid. Needless to say, I
got hooked up)

Here's my bike- it's now a wall piece in my livingroom :]

(I'll post some better pictures when i have a chance)

Man 18 prints up on OBEY for sale right now. I think that is a good hint to the obey camp that they need to produce some better stuff. I hope this week they drop a better print. Maybe a pattern since they always seem to do good for sales and everyone seems to enjoy them.

Also seeing the little preview for the show coming up in may it seems there is some better stuff in the works than we have seen lately. If you haven't see yet check out

Those fine art pieces are so much nicer than the screenprints. Love the layers and embellishments. Too bad they're so pricey. Diggin' the Dalai Lama. Don't know if I could hang Cornell West in my home - even though I share some of his views.
