Thanks for info Whirl!


I'm also going to buy some special glass for the Litho so it won't fade, plus i'm going to put a colored mat over it and make it match with the Litho!


I'm going all out on this baby!

Thanks for the clarification Whirly.


Can't wait to see the print. I've got limited wall space but it should fit in perfectly with what I already have.

dame im still waiting for mine. Ordered it a week ago at the chemical bros shop, but the order status is saying waiting "for fulfillment". Has anyone got their poster from the shop yet?

Good question, ayaz - who has ordered from the shop and how long did it take (especially for those outside of the UK)?


I haven't ordered mine yet. I really want to as it will be a nice compliment to my living quarters. :D Plus I really admire Kate Gibb's work and $35 imo is totally worth it. I may break down and do it over the next month (shop inventory and financial status willing). The only thing I'd be worried about is potential damage in shipping.

You should have seen me walking through London when we were leaving. All those luggage and the poster on top, always in my view.


I hope they now sell them in a cardboard tube like they should have done at the gig as well instead of that damn rubber around it which caused it corrugating..

Csar - I had a massive proper tube for mine at the gig... Served as a handy leaning post throughout the concert!

I ordered a tshirt @ the same time as I bought the litho and it (the tee) came in the mail today. I'm assuming the litho will arrive shortly ;-) (i'm in the states)

I ordered mine last week and it arrived today. I ordered 2 (one for me and the other for my mate) but i got sent 3.... not complaining though as it was free. Also for people wondering they do come very well packaged in a hard tube and with plenty of bubble wrap.

500 were made. I got 88/500. Had to search for it coz it's written with a pencil or the like.

So I received mine today...just fyi for those waiting for arrival in the states. Looks like I'll be spending more on the frame than I did on the litho. Oh and I'm very pleased with it. It looks amazing!! Very happy. I'll post a photo once I have it framed.

I want to buy one of these, but it doesn't seem to take Maestro on the shop, which is quite annoying as I don't have an evil credit card.

It has arrived...not bad for waiting 3 weeks! Now for the tricky part!


Since the Litho is 19 3/8 X 27 1/2, the custom frame job price will vary according to what kind of wood moulding (priced by the foot) and the matting (i'm going with 2 colors). The jobs going to cost at least 100 to 120 dollars on the estimates I've gotten today from frame stores.


Here's 109/500

I was lucky my mom gave me her credit card =D Hungry Hungry Hippos is a legend of a game, but it ended badly, we lost most of the white balls =( I gonna buy the frame from ikea.

One of the frame places I went to wanted to cut my lithograph to size so he can fit it into a standard 20x24 frame. Has he gone mad!


I'm going to get more estimates today.

Glad you got yours siphilon!

For a moment I contemplated getting a cheapo frame from a art supply store but I'm now certain I'm going to just take it to the independent frame shop for framing.


inchemwetrust: that's just absurd. Did you grab the print and run?


The frame shop I've been using recently always asks if I have a COA for the artwork, do I have insurance, etc..and I always just have to cut him off and say "no just frame it please!"


I'm also definitely going to consider matting.
