I got in early on it.. well mid 90s..
Birthday present from the wife. Great framing choice as well, the frame is wood and has the same color and pattern as the paint on the 109s. I can post a picture tonight. After the wife (museum curator) and I picked out the frame and she ensured it was going to have all the conservator based glass, backing, etc.. We came back to pick it up a week later and they had it on an easel in their front window on display, said they had several people stop in and look at it. Its a real nice print.. darn cheeky of them though.
