i think a white mount and white frame would suit it.

Beautiful!!! that is such a interesting piece of work, I wonder how the materials will hold up with time??? Yeah i have wondered about the effect of old father time on the piece !! we all know how sellotape and newspaper can age really badly .. i suspect the parcel tape will last fairly well but i will definitely be having a discussion with the framers about conservation !! Maybe seeing as newspaper is kind of self destructing it could be considered that this work has an inbuilt self destruct mechanism !! HMMMM !? I will let you know what the framers say and post pics of frame when it is complete .. Peace out  |

All you have to do is look on ebay at newpapers that are 100s of years old cgi.ebay.co.uk/EARLY-AMERICAN-NEWSPAPER-1808-ORIGINAL-AND-COMPLETE_W0QQitemZ200134782743QQihZ010QQcategoryZ21537QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemCR |

Here we go.. back from the framers Conservation framed, float mount , UV and anti-reflective glass .. Looking very nice i must say.. I decided on black as the white frames tend to disappear against my white walls !! The framers were all impressed with the piece, apparantly became a talking point whilst in their hands !! The pics really dont do it justice... Looking forward to Nov 5th Cheers Ps anyone got a print of this piece ?   MINOTAUR WOMAN GONNA KICK YOUR RIGHT WING ARSE - ORIGINAL PAPER STUDY. |

Hey guys. Sorry for the delay in posting this pic but have been really busy. Orangematt - congrats on getting your original. That looks truly fantastic. It works well in that simple frame too. So good to see it up on the wall. You must be well chuffed. I am equally thrilled with my print (one of only nine). As is often the case the picture doesn't do it justice at all. It's also under the acid free sleeve too. It looks so much more vivid in the flesh and picks up the colours and torn edges of the original very nicely. The cloth-like paper its printed on is lush. Just reeks of quality in typical Red Propeller style. I love my Denning pieces. That said, the one print I really want that still eludes me is Choe's City Girl 150. I'd consider trading this piece for the Choe. I'd be equally happy to keep it though, especially after seeing yours framed and up on the wall om!  I'll take some better pictures as soon as I can so you can see how it compares to om's original. |

Thanks Scavos, i been waiting for someone to post a pic of the print  It looks like RP did an amazing job of capturing the original ... torn edges , parcel tape and everything.. I reckon you should get this in a frame and on the wall... IMO you wont regret it ... such a low edition as well ~/9 |

I guess we are like buses, none arrive then they all arrive together. Here is my print 'Minotaur woman going to kick your right wing arse' . I have bought a few prints from redpropeller and from other galleries but I have found the quality of prints to be far better at redpropeller.I am amazed that Minotaur woman & the punk prints are still available as they are absolutely stunning. They also issue an authenticity certificate with all their prints. Top class gallery.  |

Nice one Scooby I was wondering if anyone had a print of the Hellof**ker piece...? I was thinking of getting one as it seems to be a good companion to GonnakickURrightwingarse!! What do you guys think? |

LOL I don't have it myself. But one thing is guaranteed and that's the quality of the print and cloth rag. Wonderful! I'd imagine they'll have a few at the show as they've been around a while and don't seem to be getting snapped up. It's great when you have time to be selective and choose like that. |

I had a good look at the print 'hello f**ker' at the 5-11 show .. love the image but wasnt overly impressed with the print itself ... it may just be me but i thought it looked a little washed-out and just a tiny bit blurry !!! ... its probably just that i am used to screen prints which of course have rerally strong crisp colours .. well needless to say i decided against buying one !! does anyone know where the original of this piece lives !!! It definitely makes a perfect companion to minotaur woman gonna kick your right wing arse ... peace, SPQR |

Will post better pic when i get this piece framed.. Be interested to see how the prints turned out !
