Hi Tony,
Have sent you an e-mail self explanatory well in my tiny mind anyway. 😀
I too watched the series but what got me into Sci-Fi was a series from the 60’s called (The Invaders) If I remember correctly I watched while my dad worked nights, but Star Trek was what got me interested in science, although not what I was meant to learn at school 😀 But I just loved Star Trek and all that followed as a consequence I suppose I am open minded about the chances of life on other planets.
I said as much on another forum and one member said not much sign of intelligent life on earth let alone other planets, when you consider what we are doing to the planet with War/Hunting/Stripping it’s minerals etc.etc.etc. and he has a point to a degree.. Yes I remember reading about the space shuttle dedication and about how James Doohan had his ashes flown into space aboard a Falcon 9 rocket I wonder if Mr Nimoy has a similar wish in fact if most of the cast have any of these type of wishes ?
Today though I doubt if there are such shows that inspire rather than are watched for entertainment value none the less it has inspired thousands of people to follow their dreams into whatever field they chose.

Hi All,
PBY-5A,
The price of the artwork depends on the Print Number and the total number of any particular edition produced i.e. Regular Ltd Edition/Artists Proof/Remarques obviously the lower the number i.e. 1/2/3/4 of 100/200/500/1000 etc.etc. the better price you will achieve, add to this what edition it is and the signatures plus a possible Remarque then the price creeps up, but generally it’s a buyers mkt now.
Unfortunately prints have to be uber rare to appreciate in value not only taking into account the above it also depends on how they are Stored i.e. Flat or Rolled in a tube, Whether or not they are framed ? if so professionally or just a local framer ? i.e. using acid free material so as not to affect the print’s paper, also were the print’s were hung if they are framed as you are probably aware in sunlight direct or indirect it can still fade the printed inks, also if the framers actually used UV protection glass all these factors will be considered by the buyer.
Add to the above you have artists that initially released the images as Litho prints but with the advent of Giclee and Giclee Canvas printing and what stockists you buy from it becomes ever more frustrating as in recent years the bottom is definitely falling out of the mkt, I have seen prints that a few years ago would be say for example £1000 fall by a good few quid. A word of caution Aces high while being very good at the supplying end of the mkt are expensive with framing and the like and while I would say they would like the customer to pay the best price possible I would imagine that when they buy they try like anybody would and get your print for as little investment possibly hoping for a higher re-sale value as that is the business of buying and selling anything as you are aware.
My advice would be to research thoroughly online/by phone etc.etc. find out what the highest and what the lowest and aim for the middle that way you will be well in if you achieve more and not deflated if you achieve less than what A/B or C has told you, looking at the descriptions above you have rare signatures but are let down by the actual individual print numbers and how they are stored, you could try to store them flat for a couple of years in a dark dry place but best to seek professional advice on how this could be done. :eagerness:

Hi All,
Well I hope it is kept in better shape than the last time it was restored to airworthy status, it is amazing that this historic aircraft has been left to go back to being just another wreck more or less, I saw this video below a while ago and I even posted it in one of Skyraider3d’s threads a while back, such a shame but with this latest video who knows what will happen but I fear like mentioned in this video nobody cares ??
