Just received the e-mail about The Outside pre-orders. Does anyone have the inside scoop on the tshirt and mini screenprint included in the package?

Thanks! drymounting PITA trying to keep up with everything. Emailing for purchase is dumb. I see a store on the site and have ordered multiple craola prints from them in the past, it would make too much sense to put up prints in the craola print store I guess.

Can somebody say "over saturation"?

Not really since he doesn't drop something every week like Mondo and he rarely has gallery shows once or twice a year. The giclee prints he releases from what i've seen are the same quality as a Geddes or Keyes and he could be charging way more for his prints if he really wanted to given that quality.
