It sure does.Heres the pic of tire Jack all framed up with the a&b cards I had Tom Bunk sign one of them, I also had Bunk sign the back board so it matched my ANS art better. Thanks Cory for letting this one go to a new home. Thats one down seven more to go.

Yard Sally ,The greens in this one are really bright.In the card they took the bat out of the box,I guess it looked like it was maybe going in a place it shouldnt The OS box looks like a photo applied over the art and a bargain at 5 cents. Thanks Joecool for letting this one go.

One of my favorites,I love LD art.I couldn't wait to get this one framed so none of the cards are signed yet I hope to get this done in the future.

My ANS Pound,man this one took a long time to come through.Very bad ebay seller it took Paypal trying to get my money back to finally get the guy to talk to me.But I got it finally. Not one off my favs but it is a Pound.For some reason this came with a Topps Vault COA, I thought artists were given back there art on ANS ?

No problem ink,s the pleasure is all mine ;D OK so its not really a GPK item but Bunk sent me this with the last artwork I got from him, so I thought I would share it with every one it looks like his life story and how he came to be a GPK artist. If you read his interview on Aaron's site you can almost make sense of it even though its in his native language.He said it was released in a newspaper I think

My newest addition, I have had my eye on this for awhile but only just got it yesterday. I love the OS simplicity, this is also my first original banner art. I liked this Luke puke art cause he seams to appear on allot of the card backs. Ill get him re framed shortly once I get the mint cards to go with it to match my others.

Absolutely beautiful job framing this piece. The colors you chose compliment the art perfectly!! And it looks as if Cory and Baked Jake have some competition brewing in the Final Art department!! Thanks for sharing the pics.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Thanks Nico this is one of my favorites as far as art goes,The snooty b***h in the framing store whines and moans every time I take a piece in for framing she tells me I'm picking the wrong colors and that its too distracting. MY next goal is to get a nice early Pound that was released here as a Garbage Gang sticker (LIVE MIKE),but haven't seen one for sell since Ive been collecting & Baked Jake wont give any up Ive tried.

Yeah this is one of the better cards I got as a set from some A-hole on Ebay, They were listed as all mint but most of them have gum stains. Thats why I was really pleased with my Secret Santa gifts.

This was my Christmas gift to myself, this card looks awesome in person John's done a great job of giving this guy allot of depth with just pencil and a bit of white paint. Its on really thick card, I'm going to try & get a small frame for it.
