What is this KAWS? , by chrisc on Apr 24, 2020 0:25:28 GMT 1, A few of you have probably seen this. Anybody know what edition this is from? The signature doesnโt match up with the limited edition run... Signed poster? Huh?

What is this KAWS? , by chrisc on Apr 24, 2020 0:41:35 GMT 1, That was my gut instinct as well. I also saw that it got listed for auction, along with a Stay Steady print, with a similarly weird signature here:
www.liveauctioneers.com/item/84014248_kaws-silkscreen-running-chum www.liveauctioneers.com/item/84014250_kaws-stay-steady-signed-lower-right
I asked them a similar question, their response:
Dear Christopher -
We have had a lot of interest in all of the KAWS in this sale, and I'm sorry say we do not have additional information on these works by KAWS. The consigner who is a art collector said they were bought and or had these gifted to him over many years. He also said he would look to see if he could find receipts, so far has not got back on the receipts. Please note: These are not from the limited Pace edition which were all signed in pencil, however the signature does looks good and consistent with his signature that we have found online.
Hope this helps - John Estate Valet

It's only going to end in tears for the buyer.

What is this KAWS? , by kwatis on Apr 24, 2020 2:52:07 GMT 1, Why would an artist EVER sign a print in the middle of the image? Screams of bring fake based on that alone. Not to mention he (and most artists) sign prints in pencil.
