Why It Matters

With an edition of just 20, this is one of the scarcest prints in Cope2's catalog. "Throwies," quick bubble-letter pieces, are core graffiti vocabulary, and stacking them into a composition on hand-deckled Coventry Rag turns a rapid street form into a deliberate, tactile fine-art object.

Collector Perspective

The tiny edition of 20 makes this a genuine scarcity play, and hand-deckled edges add a distinctive artisanal quality prized by print collectors. The 2-color build keeps the composition graphic and clean. Confirm the blue-edition colorway and signature, and handle the deckled edges carefully when framing.

Historical Context

A "throwie" is graffiti shorthand for a fast, two-color bubble-letter piece, meant to be executed quickly and often. By stacking throwies into a composed print in 2017, Cope2 memorializes one of the culture's most utilitarian forms as a considered studio edition.
