Signed by Dan Aykroyd
CAD $495 – CAD $750
On a Mission From God by Suchiu Art is an ultra-rare art piece and limited edition print series featuring Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd) and Jake Blues (John Belushi) of the Blues Brothers. Every limited edition print has been personally signed by Dan Aykroyd and comes with a beautiful museum quality frame, a copy of Elwood Blues’ Illinois driver’s license and Jake Blues’ prison ID card. Every limited edition print is produced on the highest-quality cotton rag stock paper, encased in a beautiful, archival, museum-quality frame. All Suchiu art is framed in-house under the scrutiny of the artist and master framer to achieve the highest caliber of quality presently available on the market.
On a Mission From God
On a Mission From God is yet another one of Suchiu’s extremely collectible art pieces. Only 115 beautifully framed pieces will ever be produced. Every one of them is “hand-painted by the artist” and hand-signed by Dan Aykroyd, himself.
In addition, each framed, limited edition print comes with a copy of Elwood Blues’ Illinois driver’s license, and Joliet Jake’s prison ID card! It is truly an unbelievable package. The framing is also included and the overall size of the piece is 27 x 21 inches, making it the perfect size for any room or office.
We expect a very rapid sell-out on this piece because of its similarities to its predecessor Lucas and Beyond which totally sold out in less than five weeks. If you are a serious Blues Brothers collector you must have one of these rare pieces.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are limited edition prints?
Unlike an open edition print series that can be endlessly reproduced, in a limited edition print series, the artist restricts the total number of prints to be produced so it will maintain its collectability throughout the test of time, therefore increasing its monetary value. A limited edition print series is broken down again into three categories: press proofs, artist proofs and signed and numbered.
What types of limited edition prints are there?
Press Proofs
When an artist does a limited edition print series of an original painting, the first few prints that come off the press are called press or printer proofs. The first few samples that are printed off are put to the side as press proofs, having been ‘proofed’ by the person running the press prior to the artist’s arrival. Usually, press proofs only make up about 1% of the entire print run.
Artist Proofs
During a print run, the artist and the person running the press will intermittently pull samples and set them aside for proofing. Traditionally, press proofs would be proofed by the press operator and artist proofs would be proofed by the artist. At Suchiu Art, artist proofs make up only about 10% of a given limited edition print series.
Signed & Numbered
The majority of a limited edition print run is designated to a series called signed and numbered. The signed and numbered limited edition print series contains the largest quantity of reproductions for that specific painting. Nonetheless, the total quantity of prints produced in a given signed and numbered limited edition print series will still be restricted in comparison to demand to maintain a sense of urgency for collectors and retain the print series overall value.
