1-9 are mine and 10 is only 10 because I had it offered to me but couldn't justify the cost but always wished i'd bought it because it's beautiful!

True, so rare and costly, not many show up, so has just about fallen off the conversation map.
Honestly, one of the very few horkeys I don't even really like.

For real. Thanks murdock for also pointing this out:
As we all know, Aaron has done well over 250 individual print editions by now, with some images seeing only one single edition and some others going into as much as 19 different printing/color/paper variations.

Good lord was this difficult. Great idea murdock! The order on this is a tough call, it should read more like 1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.35, 1.37, etc. :lol:

Im still not sure with my list, every time I go through it I come up with different answers. Most of these I have, a couple I dont.

Just cause of what this print was for, was so damn cool.
Image

Grew up in the midwest...ISO Variant still :D
Image

Its Nesting...
Image

The blue might be my favorite colorway, but this is my second fav for sure.
Image

Ill never own this one...
Image

I have a thing for Steel Grey.
Image

This should be higher
Image

I should find one of these
Image

The combination of giclee and letterpress here is amazing
Image

Growing up skating love the trucks in this one, and the silver is incredible
Image

Honorable Mention to the first print I bought direct from Aaron

You're very welcome! I'm actually haven't had that much fun since the last THC thread, so THANK YOU ALL for your lists!

And, yeah, it WAS hard to settle on 10 prints - and I had weeks to prepare... :P

When I started numbering my "favorites", I easily came up to over 20 and so I ended up with a TOP25. But here, I guess there really isn't that much of a difference between #13 and #19, so distilling them into ten, has made it actually easier for me to get them in order. Also, allowing more than ten into my list would have meant I HAD to include the Decemberists and Versus, so... ;)

Runner ups were far and in between with brand new pieces like the ROTK Variant (actually my favorite print of the year so far) Planète Sauvage and ODIR, oldie-but-goldies such as the Red Sparowes and Melvins, and of course incomparable pieces like MWH and Plighting.

What's been said about the Nesting is even more valid for this one, I guess. Only a handful have ever seen this print in the flesh to talk about it and value it against the rest of their collection. And since it's nearly never for sale, this won't change much in the future... If it weren't for the price asked, this would easily be my #1 ISO, though.

It's absolutely ridicoulus for how cheap this can be had! Probably the best value-for-money-Horkey there is right now. And it even pops up regularly here. Just be patient.
