Richard Hamilton : , by fattyramone on Jan 14, 2015 16:19:34 GMT 1, Without being able to say for sure , I'm pretty certain the main reason I would have been watching it would have been his Beatles connection , with him having designed the minimalist "White Album" and me going through my beatles-with-everything stage.
Unlike others who have replied on this thread I don't remember (?) having any idea that there was going to be a chance to grab a free print at the end of the programme and must have just scribbled down the BBC address as the end credits rolled and forgotten about until it suddenly arrived through the post , so maybe like you it was (subconsciously) the beginning of my love of pop art too ...without me even realising it was happening?

Richard Hamilton : , by fattyramone on Jan 14, 2015 9:04:05 GMT 1, I'm glad some-one else remembers this.
Those were different times then , can you imagine the uproar nowadays if the BBC picked up the tab for the printing of 5000 laser prints , 5000 card backed envelopes and 5000 x postage costs.
I wish I could find the bloody thing again

Richard Hamilton : , by fattyramone on Jan 14, 2015 1:38:12 GMT 1, Anyone here remember the BBC show QED back in 1992 when they did a major retrospective of Richard Hamilton and his iconic pop-art Collage "Just what is it that makes todayโs homes so different?
then, invited the audience to write in and apply for one of the 5000 edition of the modern updated version of it.
The new version was laser printed using the Quantel desktop paintbox (all new technology then and certainly new to Richard) and hand signed and numbered.
I decided to write off to the BBC on a whim and a few weeks later got one through my letterbox which I promptly put away in a "safe place" and lost for many years only for it to unexpectedly resurface about 10 years ago. After which I then made sure I put it away in a proper "safe place" again and haven't seen it since!!.....I know it's here somewhere , but God only knows where!
Anybody else remember this show? ...or better still did anyone else ever apply and get one?

Imbue ๐ฌ๐ง 24Hr Art Club โข Coca Cola โข Virgin Mary, by fattyramone on Dec 9, 2014 23:55:30 GMT 1, I dealt with him pre-Artobox when he was based in Brighton and he was no better then.
I probably had about 5 different purchases with him , 3 of which needed chasing up , and one of them needed Paypal intervention to get my money back.
There's only so far you can go giving him the benefit of the doubt before you realise your dealing with someone who really doesn't care that much about customer service.
Go ahead and purchase from him if writing inquiring emails is your thing , I'm through with him now.

Imbue ๐ฌ๐ง 24Hr Art Club โข Coca Cola โข Virgin Mary, by fattyramone on Dec 9, 2014 18:25:36 GMT 1, It seems like this particular leopard just can't change his spots.
I used to champion Imbue's work on forums , but no more , his customer service is rubbish.
You may or may not get your goods depending on how he feels.
He can't even deliver mystery tubes in a timely fashion and these by their very definition are already printed up and ready to go and just need tubing up and sending.....nope! ....be prepared to chase them up time and time again.
Don't get me wrong when and if they do arrive you get value for money , but are they worth the hassle of needing to inquire if they've been sent after a 3-4 week wait and then not a get the courtesy of a reply? ...I decided not after the third time of being treated like a tiresome piece of shit on his shoes.
If this is you Imbue under the name "Artobox" then you really need to get your arse in gear pal , people pay you money (or used to) for your goods at least have the courtesy to send it and/or reply to their emails after they inquire where their goods are a month plus down the line.
You treat your fan base (or in my case , ex-fan) as a bothersome byproduct of putting some money in your pocket

Import VAT on artwork?, by fattyramone on Nov 28, 2014 10:47:07 GMT 1, Parcel Force are a bastard.
First off you can kiss goodbye to at least ยฃ12 "handling charge" that PF charge.
You've 2 options really.
1) pay it , then claim it back printing off this form search2.hmrc.gov.uk/kb5/hmrc/forms/view.page?record=Bc2hJFTaDRM&formid=178 You will need to peel off the charge sticker on the tube , print off evidence of what you paid for it (paypal receipt)..... I would be confident that you WILL get it back , but it can take in the region of 3 months for them to issue you a cheque refund.
2). If Parcel Force still have it in their depot , liase with them and explain the situation that you've been charged 20% VAT on a 5% rated item ("artwork").
They won't be able to do anything other than pass you on to Border Control...Although they might try ringing Border Control on your behalf.... These guys are a nightmare to get hold of properly....like everything nowadays their phone systems are designed to make you give up before you even start and seem to send you around in frustrated loops ...but stick with it you'll eventually find someone to talk to , once you find a human voice they are pretty good to deal with
Either way ยฃ200 is enough money to perceive with it.
Good luck mate

That's what I did when faced with a ยฃ200+ import bill via Parcel Force....I knew I would eventually get it back , but I never had it to spare for 3 months while it got sorted.
The best of all of them to get it sorted out there and then on the doorstep is UPS , if it's UPS then feel free to PM me and I'll talk you through it ...it's a doddle

Best gig and sporting events you've been at. , by fattyramone on Nov 14, 2014 15:24:08 GMT 1, Yes , I watched Good old Freda (Kelly) on Netflicks (I think?) ....she was one of the secretaries right at the heart of the Beatles story , her and a lass called Bettina Rose were the secretaries I referred to earlier when I talked of secretarial autographs.
They signed 1000's of them in a fairly good imitation fashion , never realising of course that 50 years down the line what confusion they would still causing to many people who even to this day still believe they have "original" Beatles signatures.

Best gig and sporting events you've been at. , by fattyramone on Nov 14, 2014 13:20:32 GMT 1, Not strictly a gig ticket , but this kind of fits in this thread as a nice bit of memorabilia. ...apologies if anyone thinks I've strayed a little too far off topic.....
This was find of the year about 15 years ago when I went up the local rubbish tip / recycling centre ....someone had thrown out their 1960's autograph book and the pickers had found it.
Anyway after a bit of haggling I ended up paying ยฃ200 for the complete book. Inside there was autographs from a lot of the minor 1960s UK stars of the day ..as well as some biggies like Pete Townsend , Telstars etc.
But the prize was the typed questionnaire inside signed by George Harrison as well as piece of his jacket (the lining) provided by his mother Louise .....she was wonderfully notorious for cutting up George's jackets and sending to fans who asked for a keepsake much to George's annoyance.
Also were 3 fully "signed" fan-club cards , one of which was sent and signed on the back by Louise Harrison....this one is definitely NOT signed in hand but printed or an auto pen example of their signatures , the other two I'm not 100% about being genuine either ....I think they are either signed by one or other of the Beatles for the others or Neal Aspinall / Mal Evans or secretarial signings.

Best gig and sporting events you've been at. , by fattyramone on Nov 13, 2014 2:40:49 GMT 1, This is a web stolen image , but mine is somewhere in the house kicking around.
Two of my all time favorite bands on the same bill was an irresistible lure for me to travel to London to see it.
Suprisingly The Damned for me stole the show as they had become a little lack lustre over the last few years I had seen them , but this support slot made them up their game and turn out a blinder...
whereas The Ramones who I had never seen give a duff show were a bit of a disappointment for me that night , I think this was about the stage where they kinda metamorphisised into a punk/thrash outfit rather than the surf/punk sound they were always loved for.
Looking back I can't say I blame them for trying to catch the zeitgeist of the time as the more "surf-y" sound hadn't bought them the success they so richly deserved ...not really.
I will never forgive America for not recognising their own sons as the legends they were destined to become ...well not until they had more or less split up , finished and died.
Nowadays they kind of refute that and claim they always loved them...bullshit , they were too busy disco dancing or chanting "Born in the USAโ ad infinitum.
Kick it Dee Dee...wan, chew , Tree , Faw......

Show us your Sex Pistols................., by fattyramone on Nov 4, 2014 18:26:52 GMT 1, Yeah I was there for that comeback gig at Finsbury Park ...still got a few ticket stubs kicking around too as they just left them in heaps to pick up after the gig.
There's was probably 4x more people there at that gig than had ever seen them at all the gigs they had ever done before they split.
I think it was "Fat , forty and back".....a pun on "Young , gifted and black"

Show us your Sex Pistols................., by fattyramone on Nov 4, 2014 14:00:08 GMT 1, Drifting slightly off the Sex Pistols track but still relevant , someone on Ebay is selling off a complete signed Rich Kids poster.
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RICH-KIDS-Sex-Pistols-LARGE-POSTER-SIGNED-by-all-4-w-COA-PHOTOS-SMUDGED-/161473437106?pt=UK_Music_Music_Memorabilia_LE&hash=item2598911db2
I've just got mine through today and I only bought it 2 days ago.
The seller seems to have quite a few of them and just puts another one on as the other is bought. To be fair to him , he's honest and upfront about there being certain issues wrong with the posters , mainly the smudging of the silver ink used to sign the prints and/or transference of the silver ink onto the front image ...but hey , this is punk right kids!
All the signatures on my copy are clean and smudge free , just a little bit of silver ink the poster image itself.
For what he's selling them for ...ยฃ8.50 ....although he now wants ยฃ9.99 ...I don't think you can go wrong really , as long as your not expecting them to be "mint-in-box" so to speak.
Go get 'em Floyd......
