This is arguably Blek's most iconic image and a true classic. It's therefore kind of suprising that it didn't sell out immediately. However, I think this is largely due to the fact that Baggers have been put off buying Blek's. If you look at the value of Blek prints in the secondary market they're selling for pretty much the original price. In fact, I have seen a fair few Blek prints sell on ebay at undervalue. I personally think this is a good thing. It means that people who truly love the image will get to enjoy it! As I said, it's a classic and I'm sure you'll love it when it arrives! Whether it sells in 1hr, 1 day or 1 year - this doesn't change.

I like this image but not enough to buy. Having said that I am sure those that do buy will not be disappointed.

Was running short of time
Notice way the print has been 'pressed' down (sorry not sure what the techical term is) round the flag. Sort of like an inlay.

homeless in paris, by scoote on Jun 27, 2007 21:37:27 GMT 1, It's a great image and to think that I thought it had been debossed. Thanks for the enlightment, I too am now a happy Blek owner. One quick question how do you register the image if all four edges are deckled ????

Two edges come deckled, the other two are ripped after printing
