    You should use it to wipe up your Packers tears Fish.

    By the way, tell us again---which is the only real team left in the NFL Playoffs?

    Fish, I have to ask---what's the title of this piece?

    Let me guess, you don't know?

    Shocking.

    For those of you who don't know much about Dali, or Art.

    The likelihood of him finding an original Dali for 500 bucks is about the same as him posting 5 straight winners on SBR.

    Neither is happening anytime soon.

    I've been to the Dali museum in Tampa. Absolutely fantastic. He's a fine artist.

    At best it was a repro.

    And whoever sold it to Fish (If it really happened at all), convinced Fish it was real.

    Did you read this thread Fish?

    Who wished you well?

    Everyone is making a prick out of you.

    You do realize that, right?

    You bought a Dali---and shockingly can't even manage to give us a title. Yeah, we didn't see that coming.

    Just asking, needing to clarify.
    Lets just assume it is a lithograph, if he claims the original

    If indeed he actually did purchase an "original" Dali for this price, then it was most likely for an etching. There's thousands of Dali etchings available (many of which he had his students color in).

    You can get them for a couple hundreds bucks and up.

    The frame and the cost of framing has to be at LEAST $150


    Is the LITHO that is limited to 350 pieces worth $350?


    Know it's close to being, but if not, still a beauitoful piece and can sell at anytime for at least $480
