Its bad enough that I may have to bring in the matting to the inner edge of the silver lining, which is a shame. Not as much of a shame as the scam artist who sold me the print as mint, but yes, check and recheck this one, the paper is dainty. Its a beautiful image though. Truly stunning in person.

Flags, by bond on Jun 18, 2007 16:10:59 GMT 1, Alas , lately all prices are shooting up , in part as a knock on from the more recent signed pieces jumping from around ยฃ 2k to over ยฃ 4k .
Flags will be no different , the only thing that may keep it down is the larger print run but as this print is no longer brand new the chances are that most people holding one wish to keep it .
Therefore there are usually not that many on ebay at any one time.
I'd agree that prices are likely to be around ยฃ 550
But who knows in the long run !!

Crikey the prices are starting to run away.
I was fortunate enough to of picked one up from the ghetto, I nearly didn't go either, the trek from Devon involved me staying over night closer to London then heading in early the next day and the hassle and expense (cost about ยฃ80 in petrol/train/tube) put me off, I'm glad I took the trouble now. Thanks Mrs Corblimeylimey for giving me the extra push and getting me off my arse.

stamp doesn't really show up that well on this print due to the paper - also the number is written on the reverse in black pen so again this isn't visible. You can just about see the stamp in the bottom left corner of cbl's print.

I stayed over night near Swindon set off early to travel by train from Didcot to get to London by about 8:30 I was in London for less than 3 hours then got back to Devon late afternoon. So all in all nearly about 20 hours away from home, worth it though, total price of print, travel and frame job about ยฃ300.

Black mount & black frame, the silver around the print is the silver paper border.
