Strangers In Paradise #18 cover & 1998 Italian Tour Commemorative Print

Back in 1998, after meeting Terry at SDCC97, I asked him if he'd be interested in doing an Italian Tour in support of the translated edition of SiP.
After some back and forth over the email, I put together four appearances in Milano, Modena, Rome and Naples and drove the whole family through Italy, finding great support with the retailers who made sure to treat the Moores like royalty.
To recoup some of the expenses, I asked Terry if he'd be interested in publishing a commemorative print, to which he gladly agreed.
When I received the scan, I passed it on to Shok Studios colorist Francesco Ponzi who worked his magic on it: Terry agreed to the results and off we went to the printer...

When the Moores arrived in Milano, Terry presented me with the OA to the print, which he later used as a cover for the series. Goes with it that this will not go anywhere anytime soon.

I still have a small stash of the S/N prints available, together with a smaller b/w print: if any dealer is interested in getting a batch (10 minimum), please drop me a line.
