Update on the 45 prints

So, unfortunately, I unboxed the 45 prints to sign and number them today, only to find about 80% of them are slightly damaged. We narrowed it down to the paper being fickle (despite its beauty) so we're going to print them again on a more reliable paper.

Next week I'll be sending an email to everyone who ordered one with more details. Obviously if you'd like a refund, that's no problem.

I'm really sorry about this. Was pumped to get these out this week, but it looks like it's gonna be a while before these are ready to go.

Appreciate the update. Was wondering the latest. But, it's worth the wait for this awesome image!

Plan was to have a "Roll Your Own" Doobie variant, where instead of it being printed differently, it's really just the same print with a marker taped to the back of it, so you can draw it in yourself. Limited to 50.

If Mike is reading this, have you ever considered doing profiles of Sports Head Coaches or Sports figures in general?

I would kill for an Andy Reid profile with him in his Chiefs attire.
