I recently put this on the hitchikers exchange, but it didn't go thru for some reason, so I'll ask my fellow Grumblers.
Recently I replaced the glass on a Thomas Kinkade limited edition print that UPS managed to break.(which scratched the print also, but that's another story) While taking it apart, I noticed the print was attached to the mat with ATG tape on the white border on the front of the print. It came this way from the Thomas KinKade company. Now I realize this is not the way to do things, but why would the company sell a framed print this way and not use hinging? Has anyone else had one of these apart to know if all prints come that way from Kinkade? It looks to me that doing this would only reduce the value if you could not reverse the results.
What are others thoughts?
