Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>I must confess the price on the Plank shocked me as well. I'm not sad I don't collect anymore, because I just couldn't do it. It's always a thrill to sell great items but I realized a while ago that I could no longer afford them. So I enjoy them the few months I have them, then it is time to say goodbye. It's actually not that hard to do, once you get used to it.

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>WOW!!! I was way off on what I thought would be the end $$$ on the Plank. Was I the only one who though 25-35K?. Congrats.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>If somebody knows how to do it, you can use the picture from my website at www.sloateauction.com to make a repro of some kind. Someone could even photoshop the piece missing on the left side and make it look brand new. It's fine with me and not a bad idea at that.

Posted By: <b>hankron</b><p>The owner could take the poster to a local giclee printer and have it done at reasonable cost. Giglee is a digital/computer printing method that can make high quality reproductions of photographs, posters and paintings. The processes has been used by numerous famous artists including Richard Avedon and David Hockney.<br /><br />The best thing would to have the reproduction at a different size, so we don't get into any Fro Joy crap.
