“blue screaming hand” released by jim phillips.

this is an old piece of vinyl sculpture from '07 but what the heck, right? and honestly, i'd like to own one for myself. me and my obsession for skate related artworks and figurines!
this impressive full-sized “blue screaming hand” vinyl figurine released by jim phillips, measures 8x10 inches on its' stand and is an icon of the skateboarding culture from the early 80's to the present and only 500 pieces were produced worldwide.

$150 will buy you one out of 500 "screaming hand" figures made world wide. they must have had some hardcore economists genius or wizards if you will, figure out the intersection of supply, demand and price to give the highest profit potential. i’d imagine they could sell a lot more than 500 if they priced it for mere mortals and not hipster lowbrow art speculators. jim phillips deserves to get paid for sure but it would be nice to allow working class fans the chance to appreciate art as well. you can preorder yours now from garage works. then again you can pay a mere $100 for one of these.
