Congrats. The pics were pretty good and it looked to be in good shape. Someday I will pick up one of these.dineomite wrote:I was actually the one that won the auction. At first, I too, thought this might be the same print from The Giant; after comparing both signatures they're clearly not the same print. The copy on The Giant has some serious issues. I counted at least two significant creases in that thing, and that wasn't the best photo in the world. It looks like there's some funkiness going on in the bottom left corner. What do you suppose a print with those issues is worth?
That being said, I've wanted this print for a very long time. I was actually quite shocked to see it go for less than a grand. It does look like it's been stored in a tube, but since it's going in a frame and I have no intention of reselling it - I'm not too bothered. This is definitely one of my favorite images from SF.

This was back in Shep's golden days, when 95% of his releases weren't utter shite
there's a 2014 version of this that was a benefit for Americans for the Arts. It's 22 x 30" and an edition of 50.
I was going to add it to eb but thought I'd ask for advice if it should be listed as an edition or new piece.
thanks much
