I have the 24x36 THX 1138. Very nice print on heavy paper. :pint:

Check the pics here...

Nice, are these giclees made to order? Like open editions? And you chose the size?
Yep. The 24x36 was $80 but well worth it imo...

In this case, you're getting an Ansin print of a classic sci-fi film. The line-work and illustration can be appreciated irrespective of the printing process...

I remember that pic from some thread on here. Isn't that guy going to jail for pedophilia or something? Or am I imagining things?

Yeah. He has a lot of Mondo prints. I was about to buy a Moss TWBB, but didn't have the funds. And I didn't know his history.

Does he get people to wait in line/online or does he just buy them a ton of them on the secondary market?

That print came out in 09.

The split fountain looks cool in person.

I inquired about the size of the original art peace a week or so ago. It is 11 X 17".

EDIT: I have slow fingers.

Stout said in that vector site interview Rubberneck posted that if he could do any poster, he'd do Escape from New York. So I'm expecting it eventually.

Anyone else getting some ridiculously low offers on Mondo stuff from a dude with zero post history and no listed collection/WT's? Just got two in a row. Weirdness.
