Van Morrison Santa Barbara 10 EMEK

...and the regular really is sweet.

I really can't even imagine a sunset or twilight or whatever variant...its really tough to wrap my mind around owning something that fargin sweet.

Its one thing to actually get thru and "win" a regular...and then the idea of a variant is unfathomable really. I'd expect to see Ed McMahon (R.I.P.) with a giant check standing beside my bed before I'd imagine a foily variant framed and hanging over it.

Just say'n.

I SURE DO LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING PICTURES THOUGH WHEN YOU LUCKY BASTAGES LAND THEM!!

if you get a tube with a variant, do you still get the regular edition as well?

[coleslaw]

I don't know if Emek does that like Spusta for instance, but I have yet to get a variant from emek, but would love to start here

In this corner, a cool piece of iconic clip art that is beautifully printed with metallic inks, Sperry's Bob Dylan.

tough decision, I'd like to have both for a side-by-side comparison

[Tadrules]

Love it. Wish the clouds had some better perspective though..... there's either too many...or the ones are not big enough along the top. Emek rules, another classic image. I bet the details are amazing.

Both deserving, but I think Dave Hunter's Santana belongs in that conversation as well. Anyway, a topic for another thread.

I agree that these 2 prints so far are the top 2 POTY candidates.
This will be like the undefeated Money Mayweather (EMEK) vs. Manny Pacquiao(Chuck Sperry)

Ha, and I said ealier today that I think Spusta's High Sierra is probably my leading candidate, its colors and hand drawn detail are fantastic. Probably won't win, but, I think it's my choice thus far.

And yes, I've seen all of these prints in person.

We don't need a one on one matchup ... more like a cage match.

[downbytheriver]

And High Sierra sails in off the top rope delivering the knock-out flying headbutt !

nope

Wow this print is incredible. I wish I was more of a Van Morrison fan...

Dylan easily. This one's nice, though

[Imatruck]

I like this....but it does not blow me away. I would not consider this close to POTY(see rhys cooper TCV).....but the emek hype machine seems to be getting back to full swing. Still a good poster as usual for emek.

[pne...umonia]

I saw this at TRPS on the wall ...it didn't stand out from the other stuff.
