Wow. I mean it looks nice.
Can I just buy the litho for $50?
I've dealt in Art for 25 years. In fact, a bunch of art has funded several of my pinball machines.
I still dont get the value of High end auction art sometimes.
Always odd to trade flat 2d object for mechanical 300 lb. game.
I still have several rare pieces worth more than rare pinball's.
But, it takes a buyer collector.
Is this artist known for being ironic or funny? Names a painting "four pinball machines"... clearly shows five.
I’d rather own a Charles Bell.

That's a bunch of bullshit for that stupid painting, ridiculous. Personally, I am saving up for this Twombly which is way better art.

3 and 2 halves = 4

Says the man with 19 pinball machines.
Pot, meet Kettle.
Quoted from Black_Knight:Says the man with 19 pinball machines.
Art is a luxury. Pinball machines are a necessity. 
Quoted from RCA1:And I thought pinball collectors overpay for pinball.
That's nutz!
LOL A JJP LE is a run of 5000 the painting is a one of a kind
I just took a screenshot of it. I will edit it, save to file & bring it to Staples for them to print a nice high resolution version of it. I'll get it framed and hang it in my game room.
I just saved myself millions.

Just think if the legs were depicted as correctly attached, and the backboxes looked like pinball backboxes and not abstract geometric noodling.
I mean, the artist couldn't even count! The buyer got five for the price of four! Either that, or he only got 3 1/2.
Quoted from EJS:One of those almost looked like a Xenon at first glance.
Xenon police force and liberty bell
