What sort of price range are you looking for?
How do you expect to get paid - money order, PayPal, etc?
Have any digital pics (especially of the back of the piece with Shag's sig, et al)? If so, here's how to post them (care opf the TC FAQ) - http://www.tikiroom.com/tikicentral/bb/faq.php#embed

Is this an original or a print. It looks original and what is the price. I thought that it was going to be on Ebay.

Hey there teaKEY
Yes, it is an original painting by SHAG.
Acrylic and vinyl on panel
Painted by SHAG in 1999
Currently I do not have plans to list it on Ebay.
I'm basing the price on what similar paintings have sold for recently at the La Luz De Jesus & Copro Nason art gallery shows in Los Angeles.

Did you actually buy this from a Gallery or was it from an individual? It just doesn't have the "feel" of a Shag, and he typically signs the back of the painting itself in pencil rather than the backing board in ink.

Jax Tiki.......Just curious
That's funny. I purchased this from JoSH AGyle himself. He actually delivered it to my house in the winter of 1999 and he even signed my guestbook. Let me know if you need to see a copy of that as well.

This is the 2nd SHAG painting that I own and even the first one is signed in black ink on the verso like the painting that I have for sale. Maybe you are confusing this with lithographs that he usually signs in pencil on the front. I have a few of those as well.

Can anyone post the plate from the book? I feel like there's something weird about that girl.
GlamourKitty, I don't doubt your verasity, I'm sure it's just me, but I'm not getting the "vibe" from that painting.
Let the savaging of foamy begin.

I own two SHAG original paintings and this one looks
authentic to me. You can tell it's an earlier painting and
not quite as "polished" as his current pieces. Hope this helps.
