Faile New Print - Les Ballets De Faile, by plush on Jun 30, 2013 3:58:53 GMT 1, Curious if people agree that 500/500 is better than some random number. Personally, I don't think it matters much with Faile since they number them on the back.
Some people like fat chicks too. Sure, some people (very few) can get caught up in the number. But dude, it really does not make much difference unless someone is looking for a particular #, as they have all # 77 of each print. But as I said, it really only matters to that person.

I was really just curious if anyone else had heard or believes the last print in a series is worth more. I heard that once, probably ten years ago. This is just the first time I ended up with the last print in a series, so it came to mind.
On a related note, I can see why the first prints in a series are worth more. Or at least used to be. In the old days, the first prints would come off the press sharper and clearer. They would gradually get worse towards the end of the run. That's part of the reason why APs were worth more too. Now with modern printing techniques, every print is basically identical.

But as I said, it really only matters to that person. I agree, it really doesn't matter what number I get. They're all the same. I used to get a little upset when my print was one of the highest numbered prints. And happy when I got one in the single digits. Now I don't really care. Although, I think I would still be pretty stoked to get print 1/xxx. I was really just curious if anyone else had heard or believes the last print in a series is worth more.

Faile New Print - Les Ballets De Faile, by aldoxzx on Jun 30, 2013 18:02:23 GMT 1, It's debatable. I figure with 500 prints the 500th print is on the bottom of the stack and with the weight of all of the other prints on top of it you might get smooshed paper and/or weird things with the inks. Top of the stack is where it is at nowadays.

If you think about it, the last one printed would be on top. I did notice it seemed a little extra fluffy.

Faile New Print - Les Ballets De Faile, by closeencounters on Jul 4, 2013 21:48:54 GMT 1, WOW! Pretty impressive work from the Patricks there!
Did anyone get out to this Cash, Cans & Candy festival - looks like quite a stellar line-up?
Also, on an aside... just scrolling through StreetArtNews posts, it looks like theres's an abundance of events and walls being 'decorated' by many international artists at the top of their game! (*who said the 'scene' was dead?!!)

Any good frame shop can do it. Custom framing is expensive though if you don't already know. This was about $500. But it is a large piece.

Faile New Print - Les Ballets De Faile, by morgan on Aug 14, 2013 4:37:52 GMT 1, Right I figured you had a shop do it...I was more curious as to where one could buy the frames themselves I guess. I assume any frame with a deep rabbet will suffice or do you need to get those "floater canvas frames" and just use your print instead of a og? With that I will stop babbling with n00b questions

Massive thanks to Gary for a fantastic frame job, and massive thanks to Marius for the hook up with the code.
