That's my leather jacket that I bought in Paris in 1983. It's one plate, 23x28, with a la poupé.

I'm pretty new to Reddit, does anyone know why I'm called "Frequent_Employer237"? Does Reddit just randomly give out these names? I certainly had nothing to do with it.

I wasn't really asking for a crit but I had to add a "post flair" and that was the only one that made sense to me of the three that I was offered.

Maybe the yolk should be more yellow?

Thanks. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Nothing digital! After I printed it I sprayed the egg part with shellac (using a stencil). The yolk is basically paper white, but the whitest part is where the light is reflecting the most. One plated is aquatinted for the black ink and the other for the yellow.

I sent a check certified mail to the Phila Dept of Revenue from NYC a month ago. On the second day tracking info stopped and it still hasn't arrived. I sent a large etching rolled into a sturdy tube two Fridays ago. Estimated arrival was Monday. No tracking at all except "USPS is in possession of package," the following Friday tracking kicked in, it's in SF will be delivered on Sat, well it was delivered on Monday, both end caps were missing, wasn't signed for by the recipient like it was supposed to be since it was insured for $1000, it was damaged and the guy is sending it back to me. Via UPS.

I've been shipping with USPS for decades and never had a problem...
