3. I've never bought any of his books.
Every time I had the opportunity, I was strapped for cash. I guess I should invest now...

How much are lithos of his works? That would be worth hanging on a wall...

5. I should have done the same thing,
but I wouldn't have been able to make rent!

You're probably right on any lithos. I usually set an upper limit of a grand for prints or lithos. Luckily, I haven't bought art in... umm, almost twenty years now. That was the Olivia lithos I got for cahs and trade (I made friends with the gallery saleswoman working on my account and traded a massage table for three more Olivia lithos :D)

I wonder what I could trade Syd for a litho...

6. Books are always my first choice to purchase
I could always make my own art

7. I can only make so much art, and usually it's the edible kind.
I know! Syd Mead cakes :D
