well, its 11 x 17" so I doubt its a silkscreen (too easy not to be a colour copier type print). The use of serif and sans-serif fonts are brutal, and there is no mention of any artist who produced this.

This is someone trying to make a quick buck. So you buy it for $10, you add the mounting for $15, and you pay shipping $6.50 for shipping. That's $30 for about $2 in costs.

they're totally fake.........I bought a panic poster from the guy from a show at the Fillmore. Widespread Panic has never played at the Fillmore before. So essentially, he's taking pics from on-line, adding some crappy text and wallah you have a true parody poster. They're horrible quality at best, which is fine because they're essentially trash.
