Think of a number.  Double it.  Divide by the first number you thought of.  Add the age of your goldfish and there you have it.  

Will the number still be accurate if I use the age  my dog as the goldfish died during the last print release?

In fact, I think that AA are waiting the last emails to buy one : they said that we can email them to be on the list.
The result will be tonight at 12 !

My guess is lower than you’re expecting. I mean look at it, SPAM

But will it be less than 1K?

I’m guessing less

As I am obsessed by Rusha now and with all these updates, I ve been for this one yesterday ( they don’t ship overseas for the signed Vote poster against Trump )
It’s limited to 900 ( AA sale ? ) and it’s a nice combo with Tupac.
Nice artists on there ( the sold out signed Ruscha was limited at 100, in a Gucci packaging at 2500 $ ).
Have a look on Interscope records, nice art on there !

That is 10 times better than Spam/Actual Size.

Also, that vinyl would look amazing turned into a clock.

[sevrin]

Absolutely agree, the cover would look lovely framed, and the clock idea for the vinyl is brilliant!

[Acme Thunderer]

Wow ! I’m sorry mate, if you want, there are other nice combos too ! ( anyway I asked the order from a US great friend : less rates and shipping I guess. You will be happy I’m sure ! The lettering on this one is amazing ! As a rap flow !

It is for the poor screen printer... Thoughts go out to them and their imminent tennis elbow

[fm1975]

Nearly 2000.
thats really massive…

[HRE]

I don't think it is much. 
A limited edition artwork by Ruscha and screen printed element. 
It is a great acquisition for those who purchased it, and it was available at a relatively low price point. When compared to Keith Haring posters, which are produced in large quantities and sell at auction houses for substantial sums

[fm1975]

Opinions.
For me its too much…

[alberti]

It's a lot!! This is great, US election is soon

[Winter]

Looking back on this AA should have produced a proper signed, full-bleed version (without stamp) of 100 that was sold through a lottery. That would have generated lots more money. They could have then sold a poster version with Ruscha stamp online and in LACMA store that would continue to raise money going forward. Not sure who the decision makers were on this project but I'm not convinced they got this one 100% right.

[sevrin]

If AA had released this as an edition of 1836, would anyone have paid £415 for it? plus the shipping, and alot more if you went for the framing option.

[Gunny]

Think for the price it is a great buy and a lot less than expected. I bought a framed one in natural wood for the wall, shipping was only £36 for the framed which i think is more than reasonable.

[Gunny]

The thing i don't like is all the odd edition numbers in timed editions. Why not round it up to an edition of 2000 - sounds a lot better. they could keep the odd ones back to sell later or to long standing customers who missed the timed and fancied it later on.

And that's the issue with transparency on these timed releases. Not a fan of them, and don't think I will ever buy any.

[Fuzzyduck121]

on the basis that an edition of 40 (albeit small) sell for 5k and are still available at source these are immediately worth less than you paid for them

You can get a nice bigger edition of less than 100 for 6/7/k easily and maybe 5k if you haggle

I hope you guys bought because you like the work and not for any sort of financial benefit which will never ever come to pass

Are they hand numbered??

Nope. Feet numbered.
yes I know I’m a fool.

Sorry. :-)

But I don’t think that Ed numbered them, people of AA yes. 
i read a comment comparing Rusha print or posters, we can’t compare that !
Since decades mostly all the world knows Haring, Warhol, and even Baskiat.
im sorry but I never heard about Rusha before ( that’s my son that told me that it was one of the richest artist actually ).

But, I like him anyway, even if some art collectors or lambda guys are fed up of Pop art.

In fact it was 580 Euros taxes included for everybody ( even for European that had not to pay taxes for packages coming from NL ).
Shipping was free, so, for everybody
on this planet.
if there was not this + 100 £ , I would bought one.
maybe 

[Gentle Mental]

Large edition size befits the title SPAM.

So it’s a genius choice.

[Newar]

Printing is maybe great as always with make ready was guessing a bigger number though.
It's a good news for LACMA wich is a great institution
There are still plenty of art to buy coming

Exactly these are not investments so anybody who has a "Turbo Tears" take my £3000 and let's say no more about it!!

Indeed! my Insta feed was being spammed relentlessly by AA for this release.....
