Thanks for posting this! I meant to a week or so ago when I heard about it.
Warhol's Pete is one of my favorite pieces. It brings together so much for me: Warhol, baseball, baseball cards, Pete Rose, Cincinnati, etc.
I contemplated picking up the $500 LE print that will be singed by Rose. I'll have to pass...
yeah i came across it last night and was surprised you hadn't mentioned it yet on here. i figured you'd be all of it. the signed print would be nice, but with the $500 price tag, I too will have to pass.
yeah, it's a hefty price... but something i figured would be of certainly greater value in years to come. i wouldn't get it to just invest though... i really love the print and would find a place to hang it up and enjoy it.
Yeah it certainly would be a great to hang one of these in the house as well as a nice investment.
I wonder how they're printing these? Are they screenprinted? I couldn't find any info on that.
