Faile arrived today only had time to give it a quick once over, looking for the previously mentioned damaged area. Didn't see where it was serialized? Saw the signatures, but did I miss the numbering? Perhaps on the back?
Should be on the back lower right corner. It is a stamp out of 300/100 with the number written in by hand.
So the shipping box is mint. The tube inside is mint. But the prints coming inside from Faile are arriving damaged due to less kraft paper inside with the print sliding from shifting via shipping? Can't wait to see my copy up here in Canada.

I'm not sure there's less kraft paper. I measured what came on mine, and it is 24"x36" with a five inch fold at the bottom to cover the lower portion of the print, which leaves three inches on the sides of the print when centered and seven on the top. The issue may be that the tube is four inches wide which is allowing the print to slide around due to a lack of tension with the inner surface of the tube. Mine arrived with the print still centered in the kraft paper for whatever that's worth.

Mine just arrived mint. FedEx dude didn't ask for any money so I guess I will be expecting a FedEx bill in the mail to pay for customs, as usual. The print was pretty firm, centered, with no sliding inside the tube.
Is it just me,but the bosten posters nicer than the Chicago posters. It's just a personal
I don't think it was close, the Thomas is really the only good Boston one, the Chicago ones are all pretty decent in my mind, except the eagle, of course it's all subjective.

I really only liked the Faile subway print for Chicago. Of the Boston prints I liked Shuss, Eaton, Ames Green Monster, and while I don't go apeshit over the Thomas poster like everyone else, I do think it's good. So yeah, Boston wins imo.

Was excited to receive my Faile AP print today - received email that Fed Ex was in my driveway and greeted the delivery man and it was hand delivered. The packaging even appeared promising - see below - but then I opened it :( see below
I sent an Email to FAILE - I wonder how this is going to be handled. Anyone have experience in dealing with them?

Faile emailed me today - They will be sending me a replacement this week
That's similar to what happened to my print, though not quite as bad as yours. I didn't email them about it. If they had crumpled up some paper on both ends this wouldn't have happened. It forces the edge to dent when the tube drops on one end or the other the way they packaged it.

i was lucky it wasn't dented cause it slid down on the Kraft paper and was right to the edge, so thankful for that.
