Artist: Yee-Haw Industries Important Added Info: Note that this art print has been personally autographed (signed) by Robert Rodriguez! We auctioned this art print in 2010 and it has been reconsigned to us for this auction. It was obtained in person by the former consignor from Mr. Rodriguez at this event (the consignor and his son were extras in the movie "The Faculty", and that's what Mr. Rodriguez's inscription refers to).  This art print is one of the 270 Mondo/Alamo Drafthouse art prints in eMoviePoster.com's "Second Ever Major Mondo Print Auction". What is the special auction? First, some background: In December 2020 eMoviePoster.com auctioned 2,346 Mondo art prints (from the collection of Mondo founder, Tim League), and they sold for $732,660.00! But Mr. League mostly only gave us prints from 2013 to 2020, because the ones from before that time (back to 2004!) were ones he either only had one of, or very few. NOW WE HAVE BEEN CONSIGNED A COLLECTION OF 257 PRINTS, MOSTLY ALL BOUGHT DIRECTLY FROM MONDO, AND ALL BUT 12 ARE FROM BETWEEN 2004 AND 2012! These are the "rarest of the rare", and hardly ever change hands, and when they do it is usually for lots of money! But, as with all eMoviePoster.com auctions, ALL of these started at $1, with NO reserves and NO buyers premiums! The 257 auctions in this "Second Ever Major Mondo Print Auction" are the first 257 lots at the start of eMoviePoster.com's April Major Auction, and all the auctions end April 17, beginning at 7 PM Central Time. Condition: very good. The art print has minor edge defects (it was likely passed around for signature) and is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
