That image does look familiar. 8) Hopefully Stan can give us a little background as to why only one exists.

It was a print for AnthroCon in Philadelphia back in the early 2000s.

Go's Usagi collection was insane! I thought Steve and Mayhem had a lot of stuff. He just keeps posting and posting. :shock:

I once gave Go an Usagi figure and he gave me a cool Usagi black and white print (which he has already auction off this round). Go has been one of those long time fans before I even knew who Usagi and Stan Sakai was. Peace, maka

I haven't seen it reprinted either. And seeing as how Anthrocon isn't a huge show, I'd guess the number of prints produced for it was pretty small.

P.S. I see Stan was there in 2004 (and did the cover for the program, which I've seen before), so that's probably the year he made the print.

That fits with my memory. I bought the 20th UY Anniversary original art Stan created for the 2004 SDCC Program Book. I think Stan had this original art for sale but it was out of my price range. I’m very happy with the original art I purchased from Stan.

Peace, maka

Yeah I outbid too, put in $127, and not quite enough.
