These have been available for 2 months now. At least I've seen them in a catalogue in November. There were also Hand finished APs: GBP 33,000.

Sure, not saying they were available online for that long. 
If I was after a Harland piece that AP set would be a no-brainer.

The set, hung together, look top draw! Noice!

[Alberto Collecto]

Have been offered one if anyone is interested!

I like the images and they are being screen printed by K2, who do an awesome job. It’s a shame they were only available as sets, as I would have considered purchasing one at the show opening. NB the example print at the show was a giclee, not the actual screenprint.

[Acme Thunderer]

Reminds me of when people buy clothing with a massive logo on so people know who made it.

Would look far better without the large Harland Miller letters.

I’m a big Miller fan but have to agree with that. 

[Ads Army]

So worth buying or not ? Don't particularly like the images !

I think you have answered your own question. Buy what you  love and best you can afford.

Why would you buy something you didn’t like or is this asking for investment advice?

 Well, I don't remember any other Harland edition to be so widely available, sometimes people just get tired of failing and get something they're not 100% happy with. Plus it will surely help getting something in the future from the gallery.

Where are all the “huge white boarders” replies?!

[rbt]

Huge white boarders!

Most people like Harland for his Penguin works which is why these are still available. Unfortunately other people (avoided the word ‘artists’) have stolen his concept which is sad. Anyone bothering to go the London Art Fair will be bombarded by lots and lots of Connor Bros Penguin prints.

[John The Badgers]

I actually really like this new direction by Mr Miller, and I hope he perseveres.

That said, I also don't understand the reasons by adding the name, and even what the image is saying? Would the images not stand alone stronger without these?

Bit like wearing a nice jumper, then having a big logo on it. People would say, 'Nice jumper Fat Lad, and I can see its Primani you flash get' therefore detracts away from the said nice jumper.

There were only 5 of these and they sold out on the day of release, and yes absolute no brainier. The main edition is not a great buyer hence why it's still available and on the website, 12 months back and this would have sold out immediately for sure,

Harland Miller didn't come up with painting penguin books, there was an Irish artist doing it in the 80s. Just like Damien Hirst didn't do the first spot painting. Nothing new under the sun as they say. TBF the dozens of charlatans jumping on the bandwagon is nauseating.

These prints don’t even seem to be signed by the Artist 😳

Neil Shawcross is the Irish artist I think (well, English but living for many years in the north of Ireland).  He was definitely doing these from the early nineties, though with the real authors and titles so far as  I know so not quite the same (plenty of images online).    When did Miller start them?  And was there anyone even earlier??

I researched this a while back and the earliest example I could find was late 80s from Shawcross. Earliest Harland Miller book cover I could find was 97 I think. Don't know if Shawcross was the first, probably not. To be fair his book paintings were pretty crap and Miller is 10x better from a composition and commercial POV, IMHO. Here is one of his works from 1989
