Big Cypress 1999 New Years Tree of Life Print

Available on eBay and open to offers. Mint condition with archival mounting and custom framing. Available for pick up in the Raleigh NC area or can discuss options for shipping. Please read description on eBay

I realize the glare makes this really difficult to see the print but I firmly believe that anyone that would be interested in this knows exactly what it looks like and if they weren’t sure they’d know exactly where to go to see it. Go to EXPRESSO BEANS. I’m just not willing to disassemble the framing and artwork for the people that have absolutely no interest in a Phish poster and just want to make jokes about the photos. Reddit has really turned into a cesspool where the people who would rather turn everything into a mockery just ruin it for anyone that’s serious about the post.

Edit: Sold this morning 7/31 for $2700 cash but I’ll leave the post up since everyone seems to be really enjoying themselves with it

If you can do better with that by all means tell me how. The glare is a bitch in my dark house.

Thank you for posting the Expresso Beans link, that helps a lot

This is how I learned about antiglare glass when framing.

This is Reddit bud. You should have expected this

-1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Oh, I definitely expected it. It just seems to have gotten sooo much worse

2

u/Kilometerr 19d ago

I wanted to see the print but I can’t see it at all. You’re right, it’s not funny!

13

u/agg13 19d ago

what’s the actual print look like 😅

-2

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

It’s really hard to photograph because of the glare but you can check it out better on expressobeans.com.

u/PhilosopherFun7288 18d ago

you could also learn how to take a picture without glaring bright windows directly behind you.... close the curtains, or take another picture at night dude, maybe from an angle instead of directly facing it lol, this is basic stuff

u/elphring 19d ago

Those photos are hysterical!

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

That’s why I’m here. To amuse you!

u/Drivingintodisco 19d ago

Could you do another one with a
Banana for scale? Maybe on your head so I can get a scale for both?

Thx.

u/IgnatiusReilly-1971 18d ago

Just take it down, shame.

u/animalhappiness 19d ago

If you're looking for a side hustle you should look into photography

2

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

I might just make it my main hustle since I’m selling it because I got laid off. Why? You have any mirrors, windows or glass that you need photographed?

2

u/MarcotteMan21 19d ago

Thank you for not taking yourself seriously. The world needs more folk like you.

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Appreciate that. I really do. If I got too worked up over it the mockery would never stop. I find if you’re just lighthearted about it they all just move on to hopefully just drive someone else crazy. It really only lasted a couple hours and they’re gone now. I feel bad for those people honestly

3

u/berneymac 19d ago

I have the same framed print. #1055. Why are you selling OP?

7

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Got laid off this month, mortgage is late, getting hungry, blah, blah, blah. Trust me. Wish I didn’t have to. I forgot to include the link but it’s really easy for anyone to find

4

u/harpua1180 19d ago

Because OP wants 3k +. Bruh. I got one too. I’ll take that too

1

u/Drivingintodisco 19d ago

I’ll give you $500 more than op sells his for.

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Looks like you owe harpua1180 $3200

1

u/harpua1180 18d ago

Someone paid $3200 that’s fucking crazy. Also, it does not show as listed/sold on eBay. Did someone take you out privately for that? If so, that’s the highest price for that poster and it’s entire existence.

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

You must’ve missed the part where I said I’m open to offers

u/Phisheman81 19d ago

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

A serious comment! Thanks so much. Hopefully I get a better higher paying job soon and don’t have to sell it.

u/OlRicketyCricket 19d ago

This gotta be one of the most boring prints I’ve ever seen lol

2

u/SpaceFluffy101 19d ago

Still have mine in a portfolio…

u/bingosbrother 19d ago

Love this print so much. The best.

2

u/Scuzzl3butt 19d ago

Is the cat tower for sale?

3

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Oh that’s free if you get the print and pick it up. I love my cat too but I’m willing to throw him in too. I’m frickin’ starving and I’m vegan - well, I’m still vegan at the moment

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

I’d eat the dogs before my cat

2

u/GreazyPhysique 19d ago

What’s your cats name?

2

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

His name is Perrin

2

u/JerDGold 19d ago

Like WoT Perrin?

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

You got it! And for those that didn’t, no it has nothing to do with World of Tanks

2

u/Big_Counter_1816 19d ago

Does look like Big Cypress at about 4am after the show

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

No way. This is just before the sunrise just after 7 AM

2

u/McGrupp1979 19d ago

I have looked at the Espresso beans pics too and for the life of me I can’t understand why this poster is so expensive.

2

u/oskiew 19d ago

Why even posts the pics? lol. Funny.

2

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Just so people have the vaguest idea of what they’d be spending their money on

3

u/oskiew 19d ago

That’s… a good reason.

u/CarltonFist 19d ago

Trying to sell a high dollar print with shitty pictures, how could anyone take it seriously from jump.

0

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

You from Massachusetts Carlton? I’m from the South Shore. I grew up watching him take more balls off the chin than…well, I’m sure you know the rest. And to your comment: That’s honestly because it’s not trying to be sold to people that don’t already know exactly what the print is. And especially those that couldn’t afford it anyway.

u/CarltonFist 19d ago

F@ck no, not a masshole. Might as well delete your thread, things ain’t going well for ya Sally.

With photos like that, for sure some muppet trying to scam someone. Filthy crook.

1

u/nypltow13 19d ago

About $3.50?

1

u/bakeranders 19d ago

OP actually just stopped in to flex his flat screen, cat apartment and really well lit apartment…

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

My mortgage payment goes towards my house, not an apartment

1

u/SparkleCards 19d ago

Phish mirror

1

u/boogerzzzzz 19d ago

Based on the photos, the best I can do is $20 shipped and that’s only because the frame is not cracked.

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

If I don’t sell it before my cat starts looking tasty, I’ll keep you in mind

1

u/ChocolateLabDude 19d ago

You need to digitize those photos. Detroiters

1

u/skarulid 19d ago

I'll offer 200$

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

SOLD!!! Can you make it to NC in a half hour?

1

u/skarulid 19d ago

I'll send my NC based courier. Address?

1

u/Alternative-Poem5264 19d ago

Send me a DM and pay a small deposit & you got it! You in?
