I’ve decided to go ahead with the cyanotype “prints.” I currently have only a relatively small stash; I’m out of paper and will need to pick up some more. I will sell them for $10 each… and a few specific pairs for $17.00 each (the two 10-meter Orion prints, the two Republic Mach 25 prints, eventually the two 4000-ton Orion prints, a few others). The only real question mark at this time is shipping. Shipping rolled would be safest, but the paper is pretty thick and would take a definite set rolled up for a few days. I’ll try to find a reasonably affordable flat-mailing alternative.
Tomorrow I’ll get not only more paper, but more transparencies and hopefully some definition on shipping. And then… let the commercialism begin! Since this is, as was pointed out to me, a very “hipster” form of art, you’ll be able to get in early and tell your friends and acquaintances that “I bet you’ve never even heard of them.” Then when these are world famous, you’ll be able to tell people that “I was into them before they were cool,” and then mutter something about “sellouts” or some such…
