Especially since they doubled up the price on most compared to the show.
Luls. Really? Which ones?
This is the only one still up. $800 on the left, $400 on the right.

https://spoke-art.com/collections/chuck ... -oak-panel

All the others sold out so they don't show the price on the right anymore
This was a typo. It was $800 at the show. Liberty was $1500 at the show and on the drop, and the other hot one was $1200 at the show and online.

You could get it for $400 at the show if you sang "Rio" in full to Ken.

Chuck seems to be only artist that actually sells his stuff at market rate at his shows.

Normally he sells older stuff at market. Dropping new panels at 1500 and 1200 at this show was a first. I don't necessarily fault it, but one has to wonder when we'll find the elasticity of the market. Lots of panels in the last 12 months and not many of them are doing anything to speak of in the secondary market.

Whens the last time any panel sat online unsold after a show and online drop?

This is on a whole new level of sucking. Your walls should be embarrassed.
:oops: ok I tried fixing it by adding to it. I think this works well. I think it’s balanced now.
A tad better, but still completely unacceptable.

Any Sperry collectors who could answer a couple questions for me? I'm a big Neko fan, and I've been obsessed with this print since I first saw it a couple months ago. I've had no luck in any of the gallery sites I know to check or in forums FB groups I've posted ISO's.

1) Is it just a really tough find, or do I not know where to look as a non-hardcore Sperry collector?

2) Ballpark for what I should expect to pay if I do find one?

Any info, tips, help, or just well wishes would be greatly appreciated!

Tough period because it's right before he blew up to the next level with the WSP ladies, so the runs were smaller. It took me a few years to track down a 2010 poster with a run of 100.

Tips: Add it to your ISO on this site and add ebay alerts. check alternate auction sites like sixties poster auctions, classic poster auctions, etc ... you never know when one might pop up ... see here ... https://auction.classicposters.com/lots ... ase-poster

As for price .... all depends on when you find it, who is selling and if there are others looking. In the right conditions you might be able to land it in the 100-200 range. Get someone who's only willing to let it go for a special price, I could see someone holding you to 500 or so, notably because it's tough to find. Good luck.

This is great info! I wasn't aware of these sites. Thanks so much for taking the time to help me out!

I suck at hanging =(
No offense. But did you even try? Or did you just throw darts at your wall blindfolded and put nails wherever they landed?

And no, the Audrey doesn't make it any better.

- Go buy a laser level ($20) and measuring tape at home depot
- re-educate yourself on how to subtract and divide fractions
- read articles on proper heights and spacing.

-bonus tip : remember to account for the drag in the wire on the back.

I would keep the left the same, float the 2nd one either aligned at top, bottom, or in the middle of the first. Have the third one either aligned at top or bottom, and put a appropriately sized shelf to bring it all together. Just my 2cents.
