Which backglass? Shay does some, Ron Webb others.
Gottlieb Sunshine. I have seen a glass from Shay and it was very nice. Just don't know if the price is the same as the site says, things like that have sometimes changed.

Shay's backglasses are screened on glass.
The reproductions from pinballbackglass.com are on acrylic. I've seen some of them, and I'm not terribly impressed with their quality.

Thanks!
Hmmm, didn't know either.
I still like the old school stuff.....oh well.
Maybe Shay is holding some silkscreened pieces and start selling digital.....
Silkscreened backglasses are worth more $$$$ now? 
Quoted from pinhead52:Of course any old stock, vitually everything on his website is silkscreened. New pièces of course are printed
You sure about that? If you watch the video it seems that might not be the case.
