David Choe โข Death Blossom, by samuraiwriter on Nov 6, 2009 23:39:59 GMT 1, Does the perspex make the piece lighter? I imagine glass would weigh a ton. Sorry for my ignorance, don't know much about perspex.

Basically as the surface area is so big, it weakens the glass.
My Death Blossom is sitting comfortably with Parcelforce and when I called them today, they said they would send me a letter telling me how ot pay the ยฃ68 tax for it!!

David Choe โข Death Blossom, by packet on Nov 7, 2009 0:04:36 GMT 1, I just had a 38 x 50 in faile framed that cost me exactly $500 floated if that helps anyone with pricing.
the 38x50 print fits within the standard oversized mat and glass dimensions (40x60). Unfortunately since this one is 44x44, things have to get a bit more custom, so expect higher prices to frame this one.

Now the 500+ valuations given by others make more sense to me. That is pricey but I'm sure well worth it.

David Choe โข Death Blossom, by ecb on Nov 7, 2009 18:07:05 GMT 1, I was able to pick up this David Choe Death Blossom but it doesnt do it for me and more so my wife. We're rocking the Jimi print but want space for other great prints. Ideally I'd like to trade this for a signed and #'d Banksy, but I'd also sell it in order to acquire a Banksy I need. Always also looking for Josh Keyes prints and paintings as well as some good old Obey work.
The print is signed and numbered out of 38, and this is print #38/38. It comes with the full CoA and packaging used from the original shipment. The print is in absolute mint condition.
Thanks.

Ebay has a lot of these prints at the moment and many with optimistic prices. I suppose things will calm down soon and they will find good homes. I think you would have more luck trading with an u/s banksy...

David Choe โข Death Blossom, by packet on Nov 8, 2009 0:43:49 GMT 1, Just dropped mine off at the framer's. Due to the size they're going to have to custom order some materials so it'll be 2-3 weeks before I get it back. Came to $617US after tax, although they were running a sale of 25% off. My second choice was a mahogany frame that would have been $850 + tax.

David Choe โข Death Blossom, by mookie on Nov 10, 2009 21:25:28 GMT 1, It's a shame Death Blossom is getting flipped to death right now. It was only edition 38 and I'm sure a large percentage of them have had an attempted flip. It says a lot that Jimi rarely comes up for sale. I think the people that read his blog and really like his work got in there first for that one then word got out and everyone knew about Death Blossom.

I think the people that read his blog and really like his work got in there first for that one then word got out and everyone knew about Death Blossom. Got my DB and Jimi sorted and will be with me very soon. Framing comes in at ยฃ293 each but going to try sort a discount for having both done at the same time. Going with black box as the rest of my choes are in chunky white.
The thing that I believe is, a lot of people find a connection and pay homage to an individual like jimi hendrix. The subject in Death Blossom is who? I don't even know..
The point is, to me, Death Blossom is much more desirable to ME than the Jimi image. I would never purchase a portrait of Jimi, I love his music, not enough to look at him every day. The fact that the subject in Death Blossom is unknown leaves imagination up to the viewer.
Thats what I kinda think anyway. Jimi is much more collectable in the world right now.

i've been watching this one and so far i've only seen 4 up for sale on ebay (and one of them is the same as on here - #38). and none of them are moving! the A/P #8 was for sale by the printer which was the same as the jimi print - so someone on here said.
still a shame to see 4 of them on there. i'll tell you one thing, mine isn't going anywhere...
