    David from Betts here....Glenn did all this Insert Artwork for Bad Penny on a commission. Grant paid over $100 per piece and the set I got from Grant was 64 pieces although he had already sold a few off. All are original pieces of art and every one is signed by Glenn at either the bottom left or bottom right.

    As for being busy, yes, I ask forgiveness of you all.....I HATE moving almost more than anything in the world. Last we moved was 12 years ago. Now we are looking to downsize a bit as I will have 2 boys in college come fall and house is just too big and EXPENSIVE for my wife, daughter, two cats and me. To "show" our place, we have to declutter 25 years worth of accumulated crap my wife and I have purchased since we were married. I've rented a storage unit to house our overflow (although goal is to get RID of a lot of stuff, something my wife and son #2 are reluctant to do). I've been pretty Betts-absent for a week (shudders) and will for a few days more....we hope to have the house showcase ready this weekend so we can list it and start having open houses. We found a new place we like (under contract) which has a seperate 800+ square foot building (currently a home business - marketing design studio) that will be AWESOME for Betts....but we have to sell our house first to buy that one...as most people do. Shooting for closing on both properties in July. Will be bumpy road for awhile. I will do my best to catch up on Betts when time allows.

    As always "Life" has a tendency to intervene in all our grand plans. You do what you need to, David and I am sure we will all be very patient for your eventual return. I dare say, you are well worth the wait!!!

    I called David today just to verified a total for some of those amazing art prints.....and he answered the phone! Had a nice chat with him as well and it was great talking to someone that actually grew up relatively near me. Thanks for the order David and hope the move transition is as smooth as it can be!

    Not sure what you mean. I can access the website fine.

    Also when I search for Betts Books on Google, it come us as the first result and that link works fine too.

    I was very shocked that the artwork I ordered from Betts arrived today. Way faster then I thought since I know his time is limited. I wanted to say thank you David very much for these, and they are extremely detailed as you stated. Actually I am beyond ecstatic with the detail. Thank you sir, and good luck with the move!

    I have that happen as well; however, once I go back and then try again it works. Probably a DNS issue somewhere...

    Going through Google, my Norton anti-virus blocked the page. Happened using Firefox, and IE.

    FYI, David is aware of the long standing issue.
    Seems to be primarily using Google as a search engine (tried several other SE's and no problem), and Mozilla or IE, Norton Ant-Virus blocks the site.

    My spam filter actually identified a couple of David's email as potential virus threats for some reason.

    I love how it's located with all those trees around it. Unlike the concrete jungle where I live...

    Best of luck with the sale David.

    who else zoomed in on the books shelves?...
    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
