And I am 100% for prints always being signed by the artist. It really does add to the print, and makes you feel like the artist actually had a hand in the printing process.

Very true. A lot of newer members need to do some research to see if they are actually getting an AP or just a print that was part of the regular edition and being sold by the artist. BIG difference in most cases.

Especially with Horkey. If you got it through P&T, then it's NOT an AP.
People who collect mainly Mondo assume that the presence of a signature means it's an AP. Not so.
