Alex Ross Giclees problem

I own the Alex Ross giclee print Jla and it just started to have lots of small cracks on it .It is not near heat so Whats up! Has anyone had this problem. All of my other Ross prints are the paper one and never had a problem.This sucks! I bought this from the Warners Brothers store many years ago
. Just glad my other prints are paper.

I'm a huge fan of Alex Ross's Marvel/DC art but could never afford the giclee's. I have a number of paper lithographs and have had no problems. It sucks that for all the $$$ you spend on a giclee, you have to have these problems.

Cracks? Are you perhaps talking about the canvas variant?

Just so you know, canvas are not synonomous with giclees. These are two different mediums. The giclees are basically prints on harder stock paper. The name allows dealers to fool fans into thinking they're worth $500. IMO, prints have no business costing what they do. The resale of these are quite difficult too.

BOUGHT THIS FROM THEM IN 2003 FROM CHOICE COLLECTIBLES .I DIDN'T HAVE TO SPEND ONE CENT,FEDEX PICKUP AT MY HOME TURN OVER TIME 3 MTS. NEW ONE WITH SAME #WILL BE MADE THEN SENT TO ALEX ROOS TO SIGN . VERY HAPPY!

Wow that's some good customer service! Good to know since I've purchased from them in the past.

Scary stuff

Are these the kind of "small cracks" you are talking about?



If so, I know exactly how you feel

Both having it occur for an uknown reason; and the relief that comes from an explanation and a replacement after so long - a rare and exceptional customer service

Mine came back as the same number with an "X" at the end too (old 1 returned to keep the stature of the ES)
