Paul Insect 'Lip Wire' Help, by tricorn on Feb 22, 2011 21:27:13 GMT 1, Hi,
I bought the above print from ebay in 2006, at the time there was not much call for C.O.A's and such like. Recently I've been thinking if there's anyway of double checking this is the real deal. I bought it professionally framed so I've never wanted to remove the tape and open the frame. I assume it is fine, as back in 06 there wasn't much call for faking prints. Does anyone know if there's a way of finally easing my mind, I've attached some photos.
Sorry to post it here, I didn't really know where to put it.

As you say, I don't think there is much mileage in faking stuff like this. It's only recently that people have started foaming at the mouth for COAs. I love that series and they almost never come up for sale.

Paul Insect 'Lip Wire' Help, by tricorn on Feb 24, 2011 9:35:46 GMT 1, Thanks to everyone for their input, I emailed Paul and he replied:
It's an early print, but it looks
Ok to me. Signature looks good.
I'm sure if you brought it back then,
It would be one of the edition.
Hope this helps.
which is pretty much what you kind people said, cheers all...
