O-kee-dokeee, hello faithful friends and flip-happy foes,

This is a very unique release format…so let’s try to lay it down as smooth as possible. The squares pictured above are each different 5″ x 5″  screen print varieties we’ve included in random packs and orders over the years – but none of them have gotten the full size, signed and numbered edition treatment…until now.

Today, we are selling one of the images pictured that we have made into full size print (with at least one dimension measuring 12″). This edition of 105 is printed on a chartreuse paper stock pictured in the second photo. Since this edition is so limited – we are selecting our customers through this “purchasing game” I guess you could call it.

This new mystery print will be $55 + shipping & handling.

Interested customers should:
• Comment only once on this post with 2 guesses of which print it is that we are selling today –  of the 9 pictured (from left to right: Wading, Patiently Perched, In My Head, Line In The Water, Flutter Friend?, Melvook, Suzy, Bask Boost, Enjoy It)

So if there’s certain images you like most, maybe you should pick those – or just your best guess as to which one we are releasing now (others may get called up later). If you guess the correct print you certainly aren’t guaranteed to get an invoice, we likely won’t have enough to get them to everyone who picks correctly. The order of your 2 guesses will probably be a factor, so consider which will be your first and second choice. The quicker you get to commenting on this post, the better chance you have of getting an invoice if you pick correctly. There will be some gnome-discretion to avoid selecting customers that have been instantly reselling prints for profit.

Invoices will be sent from the Shop to the hidden email attached to the comments.

Thanks for playing everyone.

One more thing to note; we actually intended for this particular edition to be much more than 105 prints, but there was a paper issue, so we rolled with it and let this one be a bit of a rarity.

Oh, and one last thing – we will send one of you that doesn’t answer correctly a package with these 9 minis pictured…..for free, it’ll just show up on in you’re mailbox and you’ll be all “Whaaaaaaa?!?!?”

    I’m just going for it because you know what? I never make the drops and I can’t afford the secondary market, so if I lose, I’m no worse off than I am already. LOL. Peace. xo

    It absolutely has to be Bask Boost because the detail and color will really pop in a larger print.
