See many popular prints on ebay that are only signed AP in the lower left where it would normally be numbered. Are these real? Would OBEY sell these on ebay? How does the person get them?
When I see one of these, my bullsh!t radar goes off a bit....

AP= Artist Proof are good extras made aside from numbered copies for different reasons.

AP obey prints are more often than not the same exact prints that are numbered. there's just some marked AP, not a scam at all
on point like a decimalist?
Re: Are 'AP' Artist Proofs legit on eBay
While true, the OP needs to be cautious as Shep normally signs everything in pencil so adding AP is easy to do. I would suggest at least inquiring how the seller acquired the piece and see if their explanation seems believable.whyhoo wrote:AP obey prints are more often than not the same exact prints that are numbered. there's just some marked AP, not a scam at all

Over the last 7 years I have received a large number of APs directly from obey. Just sayin.suckafree wrote:While true, the OP needs to be cautious as Shep normally signs everything in pencil so adding AP is easy to do.

I'm convinced that the only Chomskys out there are AP's

Nope!
Re: Are 'AP' Artist Proofs legit on eBay
There is a whole thread about AP prints somewhere around here. My personal preference and advice is to avoid them, numbered or nuthin'.

I have no problem with APs. There are so many Obey APs out there. They used to send them out all of the time.
