They are a charming painter turned letterpress printer and an Art school dropout turned tattoo artist who bonded over a love of music, quirky collections and dusty junk shops. They live in a big drafty house with three rescue dogs. 5 colour letterpress with lino cut and set metal type. Hand-printed on true white French Paper. 30 x 45cm Edition: 175 £45.00  www.picturesonwalls.com/Art_Artists.asp?Artist=Roll%20and%20Tumble%20Press&Offset=0&PageNo=1 |

Arse. Firstly I bought it when I got the email, thinking it would be a cool 'very me' gift for the wife on Valentines. Now I log on here, see I could have got it for £16 not £45 and now also fear of a good 'tubing' from my beloved. Boooooooo!

The only art related piece i've bought her she actually liked was one of datas roses about 2 years back..... |

Always makes me laugh when people feed their print addiction by buying "presents" for their partners or kids. It works when you both share the same taste though. I buy prints for the missus, safe in the knowledge that she'll love them, and we share the same walls  They are 'hers' though, of course |

earlier they were shown as being sold out - now they have a few more for sale - like i said earlier, the Etsy prints are unnumbered, so they are just adding more to cash in on the POW release. Even though the POW edition is a little more expensive, at least I know it IS from a limited edition, its numbered and signed |

Joe V- do you know that as a fact.
It doesn't say either way if it is signed and numbered or not.
I picked one up from the Etsy shop, because I like the grey background more than the POW background.
I've wanted this since POW released the image in the M&S catalogue.
-----
Edit- just got a response from them on their Etsy site-
It is not signed.
(but if you ask nicely....)

From Etsy listing-
........a perfect way to tell your significant other JUST where they stand. This hand-printed 12x18 letterpress poster features an original Roll&Tumble illustration and five color lino cut, hand carved by yours truly, paired with hand set vintage metal type. All this is lovingly printed by hand , one color at at time, in charcoal gray, pale yellow, red, blue and black onto French 80# cover, in True White on the ole' Vandercook........

I do find it strange that POW have bought a few full editions from artists that are also sold else where and marked them up to flog, feels lazy and a bit Athena like to me.
