i emailed them and described how it arrived and they asked if i needed a replacement, which seems strange. If it is sold out what are they going to replace it with.

don't worry about that - some are held back from sale with the expectation there could be damaged prints

XX amount of every sale get returned for one reason or another

Not going to get too much involved here, but, yes, if anyone receives a damaged print, please let us know. As someone pointed out, overages always occur because damage nearly always occurs. We are always here and willing to help any customer that has an issue.

That being said, we are doing our best and adjusting constantly. I assure you that constructive feedback is noticed and appreciated!

Happy Holidays,

Morly

Animal arrived today (UK) ... odd packing as has been mentioned but undamaged bar a slight rough edge on the top which will not show once framed ... however, I am disappointed with the colour quality of the print, especially the 'black' which is more of a washed out grey. No 'pop' to it at all. All the online photos of the print are vivid colours and the blacks are black.

Don't know if the others in the series are the same but I am surprised it has not been mentioned before.

Four of my prints shipped together and they all had a bent corner. Not terrible but still annoying nonetheless.

I did think the same thing that Animal was really dull and washed out looking.

Alice In Wonderland silk screen on sale Thursday February 9.

Image

250 piece signed silk screen edition
12″ x 36″ $60.00 each

Based on a version he did in 2010, but with more characters and now it's a screen print.

More Perillo silkscreens = good, but damn the price increase over the Nightmare poster :cry:
