This.





And are Olly OGs in any way confirmed or even hinted at?
No confirmation or hints. Just trolling.

These screen prints are not available for purchase; however, fans will have several opportunities to obtain limited edition posters. On each day of “For Your Consideration,” Gallery1988 will give away free posters to the first 100 people who visit the gallery at a specified time.
“For Your Consideration” also features 12 illustrations of memorable Oscar moments by Oliver Barrett, a light installation by Julie B (Pretty in Plastic), and other Oscar-inspired work by artists Olly Moss, Nan Lawson and DabsMyla.

Says nothing about OGs being there, just that Moss is involved.

Great. So each is an edition of 100 and they're free? Awesome.

Probably more than 100 since they are giving some away and some will go to the academy, maybe edition of 150 or 200.

Now I don't feel bad about scooping up the whole set.

Yeah. But aside from whatever allocation the artists get. Only 100 will be for the public.

So am I getting the right impression that these will not be sold online?

It sounds like to me that the screen prints are NOT going to be for sale. Instead, they will be giving out free lithos (posters) to the first 100 people in line. Not unlike with the LOST gallery opening when people got the Stout Litho. But it begs the question- why screenprint 9 posters if they aren't ever going to be for sale?
NEVER PAY VIA PAYPAL GIFT. NEVER PAY FRIENDS/FAMILY. PAY THE FEES YOURSELF, THE 3% IS WORTH IT TO NOT BE SCAMMED
