TODAY? Who knows what they're worth in this special edition? Although I did hear recently a gallery has one copy for sale at $500.00! :-) But seeing I have copy numbered 65/250 I think I'll pass on it. The reproductions are amazing. :-) Just thought you might like to know and would like to add one to your collection. ;-) cheers, ted
