James Cauty 🇬🇧 The KLF • Artist & Musician

they actually have quite a few deleted prints avilable. Not the cheapest but still not bad.

Looks like that CNPD have finished with Ltd Edition prints.
Received this morning:-

SOMETHING IS WRONG

We're not sure whether we're manipulating you or if you're manipulating us.

Drastic action must be taken, so as of Wednesday 23rd May at 12 noon all remaining CNPD stock will be deleted from the website and production of all Ltd Edition Prints will stop.

This will be known as the MASS EXTINCTION CULL and unlike previous culls all cull immune stampage will go as well. Nothing will be left and excess stock will be sold off by the AMUTI and the aquarium at inflated prices.

We will let you know once we've pondered the meaningless constructs of the limited edition print market and have decided on what to do next.

In the meantime James Cauty will be working on a series of large mixed media collages that will be exhibited at the aquarium in December.

Those of you still waiting for the binder and it's pages will not be affected by this cull. All existing orders will be honoured.

[Strange Al]

That's one way of dealing with the flipper/ebay issue.

[dmandpenfold]

or is it a way of starting a buying frenzy before the mass extinction event? What will they do instead to earn a crust?

[sputnikeye]

most of the prints that are left aren't up too much

[carlito]

good idea for creating a surge in demand,,

[nombei]

i just received my set of Operation Magic Kingdom prints today (the first batch they sent went missing in the post...)

i'm all in favor of non-limited editions as long as they are still printed on nice paper and not just poster paper. will be interesting to see what the CNPD kids come up with...

Are all the binder holes in alignment?

sorry, should have been more clear there. i got the Billboard Editions and not the Page Editions. i wasn't sure if i wanted to spend that much on them when they were released...

now i might need to get the larger size of one or two of them, as i really like them!

[romanywg]

Yeah they were good value and nice quality too.

Taken from his site:

"Starting on the 23rd February 2007 OPERATION MAGIC KINGDOM is hitting the streets of Shoreditch and beyond with a billboard and flyposter campaign"

"One billboard under the bridge at the end of Old Street will show a different image for 3 consecutive weeks supported by the extensive flypostering of 2 designs around the area"

Someone close by please take some snaps...

;D ;D ;D Brilliant! ;D ;D ;D

That should stir up the newspapers a bit ;D

I've got to admit I'm not a fan of Cauty's stuff on the whole, but I really like the Dead Dad 1.

Having said that, I'm not buying one as I don't want dead people on my walls. Isn't he going to have legal issues with Disney?

Our Jimmy loves "Legal Issues" ;D Bring it on! ;D

[Curley]

Absolute Genius

Bring on on the lawyers....cant wait to see that on a billboard. Newspapers, tv it will be everywhere. ;D

The flyposters are a bargain at £15 each ;D

[beefmadras123]

'Believe the Magic'- the third of the billboard images is available now on CNPD- ed of 29.

Page ed of 99 still hasn't sold out..

[gbh]

nice one Jimmy.
Looks like all the page editions are now removed (yay, got all of them last week!) and only the fly posters are left.
love this series.

[gbh]

sorry, scrap that.
everything is still there, was on the wrong page

[absyrd]

I am not a big Cauty fan, but I couldn't pass up copping the "Winning Hearts and Minds" flyposter. Love it.

[Curley]

The pages are down this morning, wonder if the Disney lawyers have caught wind of this.

[romanywg]

They were down yesterday evening too. I don't think it will have anything to do with lawyers though. In all the time JC was printing the Bugs prints Warner Brothers never got in touch at all, it was all heresay.

[danvnuk]

I saw some of these pasted on a Telephone Exchange box outside my office in Clerkenwell this morning - wondered who they were by - The Bill Posters are slightly different with the the Headline "Operation Magic Kingdom"

Edited to add I looked at Cauty website and the Bill Posters I saw are on there. ;D

[thetongue]

Was/ is there a poster of the Believe the Magic image??

Missed out on the page edition and can only see posters of two others.

Ta

[romanywg]

No, just the 2 on the site have been made up as Bill Posters.

[manchestermike]

Is the big billboard up?

[Curley]

Going to have a look later today, will post some pictures.

There is also a demo in London tomorrow, if you go to the Aquarium with a placard they will paste on a Flyposter for the demo.
50 of each - No Placard = No poster.

[thetongue]

Cheers roman

Look forward to seeing some pics!! Will try make it down there myself soon

[tadghostal]

Speaks volumes without saying a word. What a great campaign.

[Curley]

Morning All.

These are from this morning, shame there are workmen in the way but you get the idea.
