For Sale - a rare item. An early Beanie before he developed his own style. He was in his Narpy influenced period. £90 +P&P
Excuse the photo quality and the dead bugs, it was up well a few marks that someone with more skill than me could sort.
Or just mount it over the fireplace and admire an early piece of work from a modern day genius

Are Beanies signed & numbered? How do we know this a true work of the cheese grater grill master, not a cheap knock-off?
I believe some of his skin is attached to the tiger glue... Mark

It was the original as stated and graced the front of my car for some time, prior to my D4 period starting, this is born out by its first public appearance on page 8 of the Narpy topic, March 30th 2013 at 10.11 PM

It was a troubled piece, taking me some time to decide on the final look as can be read in the topic, support and ribbing provided by the master sansei Narpy himself, finally being replaced sometime later

It's a true original, and can if required be autographed for posterity's sake :thumbsup:
