As soon as Jerry is given the green light to put this print up for sale, you can expect we will let you know!
Here are Jerry’s comments on the reveal:
Here we go 🙂 The Hobbit:An Unexpected Journey artwork has been sent into Warner Bros. and I was given permission to show the entire piece. This art is subject to approval, but likely everything will remain as you see it. Enjoy!
