New Fairey Obama Print

zappa99

Is it just me or is it that Fairey is just trying to cash in on his former Obama prints. Already over 2000 dollars on ebay (for the signed print).

all the money Fairey raised from the prints went to either the Obama campaign, into making more items like stickers and pasters, or, in the case of the one that was just sold today .... to moveon.org ....

He makes PLENTY of money elsewhere ...
