Lots of unconfirmed speculation said that was gonna be in the '09 BoNA sub, and it never appeared, so if there's ever going to be any kind of editioned print of that art then the letterpress set would be it, I'd think.
But it was commercial-ish art, right, so maybe it's considered to have served its purpose. Whatever, it's rad and me talking about this anymore is pointless since I know nothing about anything.

There may eventually be a art print of this image because it is one of a surprisingly limited number of things that Aaron has created that he is actually quite proud/fond of... I just would not expect it to happen anytime soon and I would not hold my breath on it being part of the letterpress series. But I do remind him periodically.

See, now, that's a good guess.

Sweet image from Horkey... would be a great addition to the Letterpress series, but I know I'll be happy regardless. Rata actually threw in the this sticker as a freebie when I ordered sum stuff that he actually shipped

isnt he saying there is no way that could be used as a chess piece since its not a 'new' drawing? i'm sure he knew that wasnt a chess piece w/out you telling him. thats my point. not sure what yours is. it doesnt matter...dont even know why i posted in the 1st place.
i took it as he though he believed it was the 'knight' chess piece. i'm not sure why you posted, either. off you go...lightyears2010 wrote:isnt he saying there is no way that could be used as a chess piece since its not a 'new' drawing? i'm sure he knew that wasnt a chess piece w/out you telling him. thats my point. not sure what yours is. it doesnt matter...dont even know why i posted in the 1st place.

I think most are aware what the illo was initially used for. They were just speculating whether it could potentially be used a chess piece, even if it is an older work. I understood it as LY stated above.Bralumian wrote:that's not a chess piece, it's an illo he did for an anti-smoking campaign last year.

DO NOT SPECULATE.
Especially when Bralumian is around.
