Thanks! It is a little more "out there" compared to frames I normally pick but it seems to suit the image.

Had mine framed by Atelier Selim in Paris in an acrylic box (bag is in the back and has a solid hanging device)

Atelier Selim is the best for invader kits. The best place to make Ange Basso boxes !!!

My curiosity has been piqued.

Could you tell us about the accident to your maidservant's left hand?

I reckon it was a car door, or a bear.

Thanks so much! Yeah, it's pretty big for an invader and the gold really pops.

Good guesses, but we're in California. A run-in with a mountain lion...

Ah yes, typical.

In my neck of the woods, we use the term "cougars".

Many years ago, a former acquaintance of mine named Cark had a similar run-in with a couple of them. For him, it happened after last call on a Friday night. He and the cougars piled back to his place and ended up getting naked and playing 'Truth or Dare'. Apparently, the game was good fun at first — revelatory, even inspiring. But as the alcohol continued to flow, things quickly got out of hand. Literally.

Cark's pinky was placed in a glass of cold milk, in preparation for later reattachment by microsurgery. Sadly, however, he waited too long (over 12 hours). It was the weekend and he initially didn't want to cause a fuss. The doctor also confirmed that, rather than milk, it would have been preferable just to use gauze wrap, a watertight bag, and some ice.



A friend of Cark named Brian (whom I never met) apparently used to borrow the severed digit afterwards. With his hands in his overcoat pockets, Brian would approach schoolchildren and ask them to guess how many fingers he had. My understanding is that he successfully completed around 100 of these faux-impromptu street performances over the course of two months.

The various reactions by kids to the grand "reveal" were generally foreseeable. But sometimes people can surprise you. And unfortunately for Brian, matters escalated during his final show when he was stabbed to death by a 14-year-old who had been carrying a concealed sharpened screwdriver.

Ever since then, the pinky has been locked up in a police evidence room. Thankfully, Cark isn't too bothered. He is a vegetarian, and the finger had in fact started to take on the appearance and odour of a desiccated Chicken McNugget.



Someone recently informed me that Cark is now telling people he lost his finger to gangrene during a challenging climb of Kula Kangri.

Despite my issue of principle with this deceit, I do sympathise with his plight. The truth used to evoke awkward pity or mild disdain from others. Whereas the feedback to his white lie is presumably more one of admiration.

Very good. That is the rare kind of showing off I can appreciate and admire.

A similar thought did cross my mind, along with the prospect that the Urban Art Association may have an oyabun as one of its members.

However, I discounted this possibility due to the absence of visible tattoos on the left shoulder and arm area of the photographer (whom I assume is set0312) — as reflected in the frame's glazing.

Crazy story but moved to Perth, Western Australia in 2014. While chatting to someone I met not long after moving to Perth I found out last week they actually organised the invasion of Perth. I bought a folded map from them and in conversation he mentioned there were unfolded maps which were never signed. He kindly agreed to sell me one and its just waiting to find the right spot on the wall.

This started of with me questioning the frame, then I noticed the orientation, then the edition numbering. Now it’s got me questioning everything about my life.

Is it numbered in the top right? Fake?

On these, the signatures were put on the right side and we know what PoW were like with the consistency of numbering in the early days. I’ve seen numbering on bottom left, bottom right and top right in the past. This edition also had people moaning due to white lines showing between the cubes, but that was part of the process and I seem to remember that Ben Eine screen printed this one (make your own judgement there 😉).

Below is a photo from the Invader book which shows where the signature was put (and the ‘intended’ way up).

I’m guessing the new owner dropped a large wad of cash buying it so wondering how long it will be before they realise. Hopefully they are reading this forum so can find out sooner rather than later.

That’s cool. I’m a resident of Perth and have a folded map somewhere. I’ve never seen the unfolded ones though. It’s crazy to think that there were so many invaders in Perth, there are a couple left now that I know of.

I am planing on framing my Kit #1. out of the rapper. What type of adhesive is recommended to hold the tiles in place?
