shepard fairey we the people silkscreen AP sets, by Happy Shopper on Oct 10, 2017 10:18:17 GMT 1, I'm not sure AP adds much value to Fairey prints... normally they're unnumbered, so a bit of an unknown quantity (in every respect).
Also, I'd say the larger signed Lithos are probably more attractive, and cheaper! His other Lithos, that I've seen, have been on the same paper and a very similar print quality (you'd be pushed to spot the difference between Screen or Litho)

Completely disagree. The larger signed lithos are huge and on very thin paper. The AP and S/N silkscreen are far higher quality, thicker speckletone paper and being 18" by 24" they are smaller and the same size as the standard Shepard prints.
Side by side you clearly see the difference.

Isn't there 2 types of Litho with these? Pasters, and the ones on the same Creme Speckle Tone paper as the screened versions (just probably a slightly lighter stock.. that you can't even see once framed.)

These same offset lithographs were the ones handed out on the day of the inauguration. They are creme speckled tone but very thin paper - flimsier than your standard A4 copier paper.
I was fortunate to get hold of the S/N set, these are creme specked tone but are closer to card, same as a normal shep edition.

shepard fairey we the people silkscreen AP sets, by Art Fan 2011 on Oct 10, 2017 10:52:56 GMT 1, These AP's are on the same paper Shep usually uses, the large litho were indeed on very thin paper, almost like tissue paper, maybe 50gsm or below.
I wonder how many sets are being made available now, I suspect quite a few! "Greater than fear" is the one everyone wants, the other two are no where near as popular. Could probably pick up a signed and numbered set for similar amount so bit cheeky they have hiked the price from 300 - 1350!

shepard fairey we the people silkscreen AP sets, by Posterboob on Oct 10, 2017 11:22:09 GMT 1, "Artist's proofs (APs) are prints used to ensure that color (and all other aspects of a print) is to the liking of the artist. Some artists reserve up to ten percent of an edition as artist's proofs but, according to one source, Shepard Fairey keeps the first 1-35 of his prints, and creates and sells the APs to make up for this gap (making up fewer than ten percent of each edition). Shepard has stated that 10-15 APs are made for each print.
Some people say that the APs are worth more, while others say they are worth no more than a numbered print. They are only worth more if the demand is greater than that for the numbered prints, which is usually the case. Because of this, APs consistently sell at auction for more than their numbered counterparts."

shepard fairey we the people silkscreen AP sets, by joe2191 on Oct 10, 2017 12:09:00 GMT 1, Thanks for posting! Have been waiting to get a reasonable price for 'Greater Than Fear' on ebay - so thought why not grab all three at this price?!
Having said that - I'd be surprised if there are only 10-15 of these available and yet they've still got stock. But either way, great!

shepard fairey we the people silkscreen AP sets, by settingson on Oct 10, 2017 12:48:34 GMT 1, Thanks for posting these, had considered a set previously but unfortunatelyat that price these are a bit rich for me. As has been said the particularly striking image is the 'Greater Than Fear' print and actually the signed and numbered one of the actual photograph direct from Ridwan Adhami I think is a great alternative.

They're printed on cheap thin paper similar to the larger we the people lithos. At least they were in April. They may have changed since then , but if they're the same paper, you'll be disappointed. |

shepard fairey we the people silkscreen AP sets, by jbelleit on Oct 10, 2017 16:44:08 GMT 1, I had to pull the trigger...more than I would have liked to spend, but being as political as I am, it is only right that I have a copy of these images... Not sure how the AP will affect price and not sure how many AP's are out there, but considering I am going to frame and put these up on my walls, I am stoked...but broke.
Is this really a tax-deductible contribution?
OH...and thanks OP!!!!
