FORGET the freaking NUMBERS!!!!!
Do you all get it, I (as in ME) am selling VERY very VERY rare, one of a
kind limited edition alphabet letters sharpied on canvas.
I cant express enough how RARE this is.
the Canvas is NOT painted in Gesso, and the letters are lovingly hand
crafted by me, while visiting the Fanklin Mint. I used a FAT sharpie.
Each canvas is signed by me. Their will be no reprints. These are NOT

Only 25 letters remain. If you order NOW, I will not charge the premium
surcharge for the vowels.
