Clint Wilson is having his yearly tube sale, and THIS time around, he’s bringing the HEAT!
Not only is Clint practically giving away prints at $50 for a tube of 5 prints, but EVERY tube sold will have one amazing print from his personal collection!
What’s IN SAID COLLECTION, you ask?
You know, stuff like THIS-
Clint has been working in print shops off and on for years now, and back before he helped start the Nakatomi Print Lab, he worked at the local shop- Obsolete printing. AND, while there, he managed to amass quite the collection of oddities, rarities, and things like printer’s proofs and test sheets! Not to mention his straight up personal collection he’s throwing in! Back in ’08, Obey/Giant sent a big-ass stack of these HOPE prints to Obsolete to paste up around Austin, and as a thank-you to the staff, the story goes, Shepard allowed the people to keep a couple each for themselves!
Below is a pic of Clint pasting some of these up for proof!
(Clint is the taller, thinner, younger guy on the right)
So, you might say, this poster is obviously an insane deal, (seriously, have you seen the aftermarket prices on these things?) but what else you throwing in there, guys?
Here’s a few pics of what was just on top of this particular stack of goodness!
I asked Clint to give us a quickie run down of what artists’ prints he had off the top of his head, and this is what he came back with-
A couple different Fairey pieces, including the HOPE print, Some Aaron Horkey prints, Brad Klausen Tron Alamo poster, Olly Moss test sheets, some Jad Fair, Luke Cheuh, Daniel Johnston, several David Flores, Evan B. Harris, Buff Monster, Dalek, Jay Ryan, Jon Smith, Dan Grzeca, Anville’s Delorean on Foil, Dave Kinsey, some different Jermaine Rogers prints, Michael Sieben, 2 Cent, etc…
Keep in mind, this is just the TOP of the stack. He’s got 250 of these to give away, and one is going in EVERY tube ordered through this tube sale!
We will have 250 tubes. Each tube will contain 5 posters total. One of them will be from the ‘special’ stack of awesome. The other 4 will be prints by Clint, from way back when he first started printing to whatever he did last year!
ON SALE INFO-
These will go up between NOON and 12:30 CST on the Nakatomi site in the CLINT WILSON section of the store tomorrow (as this is being written), Tuesday the 24th. We will post a direct link here when it goes live, but the fastest way to find out is on TWITTER. (follow us, dummy!)
THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW-
–You can order as many tubes as you’d like. If you order more than 1 though, we might not be able to avoid giving you duplicates. We will do our best, though.
-You can only order one tube PER order. That means if you want 2, you’d have to go through the system and place a new order. Because we only charge shipping once per order, ($8.99 US, $14.99 Canada, $19.99 World) for posters, that’s what it costs us to ship to you. If you ordered 10 tubes and only paid $8.99 shipping, we’d get hosed. So order as many times as you like, but only one tube per order. Hope that was clear.
Okay, see you guys in the afternoon!
