Here's the top 5. My Linnea Strid skateboard would have replaced the NAIF wood but FEDEX lost the package somewhere between Sweden and here. :hanging:

Light year for me, think I counted about 15-20 posters I added this year.

I'll forfeit a 5th pic because the pics I have of my fave pick ups contain other prints and I'm not pulling them out to retake the picture. Sorry fredo, I'm sure Goodell will suspend Brady a game for my transgression.

Hynes/Hall QOTSA:

And then a few below including an Eyvind Earle print ... took a while to find one I liked at a reasonable price. The printing on this is fantastic, super thick inks.

Thanks! The Cleon is a painting on canvas (just edited the title to clarify). The wife and I are big fans of his and he’s the nicest guy.

For the last two years I’ve tried to slow my acquisitions, and that effort paid off until the end of this year when the dam burst. Three recent additions to my collection:

1. Another Shawn Huckins, titled Edgar Allan Poe, Sarcasm Noted

2. Victor Castillo, titled As You Are

3. Nouar, titled Just Between Us
