I do think that is one of the best and most original

Hi Tyler,
I posted about the limited edition of the "Speaking In Tongues" album, and
the cover on mine has yellowed too but it hasn't diminished it's value. The
one that I saw auctioned off for $4500 a couple of years was also yellowed. I
do like the cover, but I'm not a big fan of his work. Since he is a local
celebrity, I have a few pieces of his work but for investment purposes only.
I've partied with him a number of times and he still is good friends with
David Byrne. I may not understand his work, but he's certainly an
interesting man.
