also, my Louis Gara has some penciling on the back, a little strange to find.

time to find some frames for the doyles. apparently 12 x 24 is hard to find, so looks like i might be matting some prints this weekend.
WOAH- I have no idea how that penciling got there on the back. That definitely didn't happen on my end. If you want, shoot me your shipping info and I'll send you out a replacement. I have no idea what that even is from!!!

I thought about this for a bit, but I'm really glad I picked it up.

Thanks for the heads up, just found it. Not sure on the price though, I thought it was $50 originally but perhaps not. If it was I don't know if I'd pay double... :S

You're new here...double is a hook-up, most of the time, especially for a guy with Sperry's fan base.

To be fair, if you bought at the gallery in person it was around $66, if you had it shipped to you probably around $75 and Sperry was selling it for $100 or something. So yeah, that is a pretty good deal.

Yep, apologies I didn't explain myself correctly. From what I've seen of Sperry's work in pictures they certainly look great and it probably is even worth double the price. I meant more personally from my own financial situation... I don't know if I could go that high on an art print - I like it but I don't need it. But I get what you mean, it is a hook-up nevertheless.

nice pickups man!
Gotta wrap my head around actually having it first. :wink:
Once you do that, please fabricate for the masses whatever you come up with. Mine has been in my portfolio for way too long.
I'm in!
