Here's an ugly signed poster for $250. Probably only for US citizens though I'm guessing. peoplefor.shop/products/ee-nuf-by-ed-ruscha-signed-poster

Also they have some Ruscha note cards at the Moma store for $12.

It’s for Trump campaign ! 

It’s not. It’s for an anti-trump organization.

These the auction result of the same style paintings, being able to grab this for such a price is amazing and a no brainer for me

Easy pass. Poor image, unsigned, and overpriced. Will come in a nice crate though I imagine. Definitely not an iconic image.

It’s a spam ad indicated !

Well the most iconic images has been already done too (oof etc )

maybe I should ill go for it because I have no Rusha, and Rusha is amongst the greatest ( I missed his signed book 2 months ago : I did not know him , it s my son that explained who is Rusha )

a new signed book ? do not found info about , he is maybe release a new one for his new show at LACMA ?

Was not really a new one, just somebody posted in the thread " Recommanded books " , a book for 100 $ signed by Rusha ! They just have the unsigned one now ...

Newar :
Someone posted about the signed ( and limited) Ed Ruscha book in the Book thread - they were published to coincide with his OK LA exhibition in Oklahoma back in 2021. Great book! ;-)

Edit. 
Lroy beat me to it. :-)

Better to go for proper limited edition signed prints. A nice selection here.

Purchasing anything on that site at those prices is a guaranteed way to burn money. Anyone thinking of doing so should think very carefully before making a purchase. 

[Lroy]

Anyway, to conclude, I like the image and the artist, I like AA also, but will this print be a great investment ( it's the first time that I ask on this forum a question like that
Thanks !

[Lroy]

Ed Rusha ? Do I love you ?

Investment? Yes, if a person is lucky to find a fool to resell to, they might be able to fund a few Big Mac combos.

[ignition0]

I think this print should be bought purely if you like the image and want to hang it on your wall. (Who knew people actually still do that?!) if you’re looking to make money you may be better nipping into your local William Hill.

[drbf]

I think you will have to enjoy for a long time before seeing an appreciable increase in value. Purchase Art you want to look at everyday.

[orchid]

Sounds like AA didn't get much say on the image over the artist and museum

It's the kind of thing you buy because you'll enjoy it. But there will always be someone who didn't buy one from the release that wants one. New people born every second. It's also not a $10 poster. There will also always be people who can't afford it now and might be able to in a few years. The funny part is that if it were a Banksy timed release for the same price, or more, nobody would question if it were worth it. So just weigh out how much you like it and if you would enjoy it on your wall or not.

Text is in a corner....
edit : I was referring with corners in 10foot frame 🖼️ ahaha )

[Dahmer]

If you wanted to float it, it would always be visible and make it look like a ‘poster’instead of a £500 screen print

does the text make it better? No. Then why is it there?

Some might say it’s a promotional piece for the LACMA?

The text is referenced as an artist’s stamp like any other print that is stamped rather than signed. In this case it also has LACMA and 2024 alongside the artist’s name because firstly the original is in that gallery and secondly the proceeds go to LACMA. May also be a licensing reason if LACMA own the original?!

It isn’t actually printed with the rest of the image which would make it feel more like a poster.  How do you separate a poster from a print? Well that is subjective but the paper stock and printing method for me determines that. This is a print!

[Arty Farty 15]

It’s 2024. This is a poster that identifies as a print.

I don’t really see the point in covering up the tiny text. It really doesn’t bother me. It certainly doesn’t make it a ‘poster’. You’ll also be covering up the edition number. Float it like Avant Arte have done. It looks great.

I agree that it doesn't make it a poster but it does make it *look* like a poster.  That's what posters do; they print some lettering in the bottom right hand corner.  Most art prints tend not to do that. 

[orchid]

Definitely screams poster, they could have put the text on the reverse at least. Expensive poster at that. He has released tens of thousands of prints over 6 decades, better printed, limited editions. They may not scream Ruscha or be so obvious as SPAM but you'll get something more special with a bit Extra.
