New Shag Print (or fake)

As a Shag collector who has not yet had the privilege of attending a gallery showing, I'm curious about this listing on ebay...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=856595632

Is this an authentic print released by Shag, or is it a fake?

It's the real thing, but from what I can tell, the info is wrong. The edition is 300, not 250, and the size is 7"x21", not 11"x26". It was for sale at http://www.tinmanalley.net. They also have another print (actually a set of two!) that's awesome called "Calypso Wall." They are almost sold out, but the owner told me that all three of these prints will soon be available through Switched On Gallery.

Went to the Tinman Alley opening on Saturday - it was a show of prints but, it was nice to see them in person instead of in a book or on the internet! I wanted to buy that print and it was sold before I even got a chance at it.
Oh well!

Just Cool,

I just found out from the people at Switched On Gallery that this print will be released in late May. Looks like the person who bought this print from Tin Man Alley was just another Tiki profiteer.
