(THANKS!!)
the 7 is crossed, maybe that is causing the confusion...

Oops

I guess I didn't look close enough, as I just posted that message from last week after I had already rolled up the posters.

I'm confused on why the newsletter had the wrong info too though

Any idea when the sale date will be announced?
Gracias!

Did it not load in your browser? It should be one of the top items listed, try hitting the stop button on your browser after the top third has loaded. The page is loaded with images that take way too long to load if you wait for all of them to appear. Hope you get one.

I was able to get one. This is my first Horkey and I am so excited. I have been trying for a long time get either of the Fantomas/Hurricane prints and this definately makes up for it.

They're still up, try this link:

Notice that the Juxtapoz/Melvins print features Horkey art as well.

The only reason I'd buy one is to flip it (is it flippable? what do y'all think? flame away). It's too big to display/frame, especially in my house, and even if it was small, my wife would never let me. I love Horkey's work, and I would buy this if it was a rock poster, but as an art print, I'm just not that into it. I'm still torn, though. Something is telling me to pick one up, but I just can't tell whether it's my American consumerist side or a true compulsion to buy it for some other reason.

Though I am not supporter of flipping posters to make twenty or thirty bucks, I would think it could be good "trade bait," and probably entice another collector to part with a poster in their collection. But if you are just buying it to turn around and put in on ebay to make a few duckets, I don't see the point in that.

Well, the point is to make a few duckets. But I'm gonna pass this time.
