Title: St. Jude's Fred Bear Print
Post by: Barry Wensel on February 03, 2015, 11:53:00 AM
We are very proud to offer this outstanding Limited Edition custom print of Fred Bear by world renowned artist/bowhunter Andrew Warrington. Andrew has created only 190 of these works of art. An excellent montage drawing of Fred Bear is strikingly portrayed centrally with a collection of six of his big game bowhunting trophies. Elephant; tiger; brown bear; Cape buffalo; whitetail and Stone sheep are all realistically captured along with Fred. The impressive illustration will be extremely popular with Fred Bear fans, as well as a historic documentation of bowhunting's early history. Because Andrew is from England, he has asked  www.brothersofthebow.com (http://www.brothersofthebow.com)  if we would exclusively market this print here in the U.S. Please note, this will be a Limited Edition of only 190 copies. Once they are sold they will be gone. Each will be personally signed and numbered by the artist adding to the collector's value. They will be sold first-come/ first-served for $100. each, plus $10. S&H. The best part is Andrew has generously and proudly offered to donate 70% of all proceeds to the St. Jude's Research Hospital for Children via the Nicklaus Children's Health Care Foundation in a collaborative program to benefit sick children who can't afford quality medical care. Fred Bear fans will be proud to own/display this great piece of art for the home or den, or as a gift, knowing their monies will be going to a great cause.

I have the Paul Schafer print Mr. Warrington did a few years back and will be adding this one to the collection.

I already have the Schafer print Warrington commissioned, would it be possible to get this one with the same number?

Thanks,

Additional info on the print is listed on our  www.brothersofthebow.com (http://www.brothersofthebow.com)  webpage listing. It is 11 5/8" wide by 16 4/8" high... and heavy stock paper thick. Ha. It is offered for sale as of today exclusively via our BOTB website above. Yes, Andrew is an unbelievably skilled artist. I own a bunch of his great work. I've had several of his prints mistaken for photographs, they are that good. For him to donate 70% of his sale proceeds to sick children is extremely generous. This gesture will tremendously help bowhunter  images. Thank you all.
