As discussed in the Original Artwork thread, due to the overwhelming interest in the piece we've decided to make a limited run of prints available. These will be high quality reproductions: giclee prints on woven paper, they will be nice-looking pieces as opposed to something resembling a poster. Given the outlay required to do this and the quality of the final product, the flat fee will be $150 for the fund's sake.
 
The run will be limited to 16, each signed and numbered by me. That means some of you who expressed interest will not be able to purchase a print, as I'm honoring requests on a first-come, first-served basis once the $150 donation fee was announced. I wish we could do more, but we wanted to keep the number low for a variety of reasons, among them making sure your donations weren't partially tied up in excessive printing fees, and also out of respect to the incredibly generous Napkin, who thought he was bidding on a one-of-a-kind piece when he made his significant and selfless bid (that's my call, not his, he wanted to do whatever raised the most money).
 
With that in mind, here are the SoSHers who are committed to a print:
 
B H Kim
TheoShmeo
Vegas Sox Fan
Dogman2
bankshot1
TallerThanPedroia
Spelunker
Preacher
The Tax Man
mcaqua
sunoff
mascho
The Last DiMaggio
Bosoxen
LoweTek
Rudy Pemberton
 
If you made the cut but want to back out, no worries, let me know via PM, there are several people on the waiting list who can step in to buy one.
 
Some of you inquired if it would be possible to have them framed beforehand (for a higher price), and I'd love to be able to do it, but it will be very difficult logistically for several reasons. I wish I could, you've all been very generous with your offers.
 
I can hand-deliver any prints to people within driving distance of Eastern Massachusetts. If it needs to be shipped, we can hash out the details via PM, I'll make sure it gets there securely.
 
TallerThanPedroia will post here about payment details. Thanks again for your generosity.

I was multi-tasking at the time and did not notice the 'Other Amount" radio button on Clayton's donation site. So I saw only the $25, $50, $100, $250 buttons.

Also in recognition of Napkin's generous bid on the original and Rip's contribution, I went ahead and donated $250 for Clayton and the Patriots Foundation.

Thanks Rip and Pedroia. Nice work.

Sorry, I was out of the country from Thursday - Sunday. The original has been scanned and I'll be meeting with the printer this afternoon to go over the proofs. Prints should produced sometime early this week and I'll make delivery arrangements with bidders over the next few days. Thanks for everyone's patience.

Mailed out all the pieces that needed to be mailed out today, and coordinating drop-offs with those in the area.
 
B H Kim and Spelunker, check your PMs, still waiting on addresses from you guys.
