How do you even know its a 24x36? Screen print / offset? If Obama is putting them out then it will prob be glossy paper.

How is anyone sure this will be a screenprint and not an offset?

I am thinking that this version (on the Obama site) will be unlimited like the Peace Girl (Make Art Not War) offsets. If you support the campaign, get one. Sure there will be flippers looking to make a quick buck off the uninformed on Ebay, but I don't think this one will hold much value unless Obey also releases a signed/numbered/limited version at a later date.

It's still a long way till November.

Disclaimer: I have no inside info

I am almost positive this is an offset and it definitely won't be thru upper playground - that was just for the mac print. there are likely going to be a ton of these so I don't think getting one is going to be an issue.

I would be a little surprised if Fairey didn't release a limited edition silk screen version of this through Obey.

Took the words out of my mouth. I doubt the #1 stressed aspect in creating this print was originality, because he is just supporting his candidate ..you douchebag
