I want one of those.

And careful, if you leave it where direct light can hit it by that door, it will sun fade in a hurry. I learned that the hard way with one of my favorite prints ... all the Garnet turned a shade of purple.

Haven't hung it yet. Just wanted to show it off. Thanks for the tip though, didn't know about that!

I got another one last year of the Clowney hit I still need to get framed.

I'd like to have those two as well.

I had hung some prints in the Cockaboose, two nice stadium prints from different eras up in the skylights in the middle where we hung the fan ... and both of them ended-up sun damaged inside of one season.

Another one I had in my office at home only got partial sun and it too was sun damaged, but just in the part where the corner of one window allowed light to hit it during the summer.

Learned my lesson the hard way.

I don't know about you, but I usually end-up with a few hundred bucks in the print by the time it is framed - so I am more careful now and wish someone would have warned me in advance.

I've got a dozen prints of various Gamecock things still rolled in their tubes. All kinds of stuff. Dennis at Gamecock Country, (now defunct), used to be a friend of mine and he used to call me whenever he got a new one in so I've got a big collection. And Chip Prezioso is a friend as well and I've gotten a few from him over the years - especially the Holtz and Spurrier stuff. Matter of fact I saw Chip with the HBC at the game today. He's still as wild as he was when he was a kid and he's got to be pushing 62 or so now ... but he gets the best prints and a few originals over at Palmetto Promotions and SCShops.com.
