I still have some of these left, and would be willing to donate the proceeds to Buddy Charleton to help him out a bit during this time. If anyone is able to help me coordinate this with the Charletons, I'd appreciate it. I hope I am not doing anything inappropriate by extending this gesture, and will not take offense if it is refused. I will donate 100% of the funds (after packing and shipping costs), which will be about $50 a print. (Unfortunately, the cost to ship cylinders is high). They are printed on high-quality, authentic print paper. They are not posters. Please see below for details on the prints themselves, and you can email me with any questions. Thanks!
Hi everybody,
After showing my brother's oil painting of Buddy Charleton on the forum, much interest was generated in making a run of prints. It is a study of a Rick Price photo taken at the Ernest Tubb record shop in 1971. Here is the related thread:
http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=131340
The 16 x 20 prints are now done, and orders have been steadily coming in. There are still a few left. They have been reproduced on high quality artist paper by a reputable print shop. They will be signed and numbered by my brother this Saturday and ready to ship Monday, May 5th. This is the only run being done. Rest assured you will have 1 of only 20 ever printed. The cost is $85 packed and shipped to the USA and Canada. They will be rolled and shipped in a cylinder. I will accept Paypal or international money order.
Please contact me by email or PM with any questions. Thanks!

I forgot to add that the forum will get a 2.5% donation from each sale.

Thanks to all who have already sent their payments. Your prints will be mailed first thing tomorrow morning. Here is a snap of Ron earlier today, signing and numbering them:

The first batch are on their way, folks. There was a premium on the cylinders which boosted shipping considerably. So I had to go with standard mail at around $19 a piece. That's fine, though. They'll arrive safe and sound in about 10 business days. Roy, you will get your print faster because you're only across the pond from me.
Please email or PM me if you have any questions about this print. Thanks!

Hey everybody,
I was holding two prints for people who expressed interest on the related Steel Players thread, but I haven't heard anything from them since the prints have been made available. So I will go ahead and make those prints available as of tomorrow for other orders I am receiving now. If you didn't receive my email or PM, then just send me a message and we will work it out in the meantime.
Rest assured that anybody I've corresponded with still has a print set aside for them. And for those who will be receiving yours soon, I am really looking forward to your opinion!

Still some left for those looking for a high-quality limited-run print of a classic steel guitar player.

WOW!!! 
I received my print today and all I can say is it's beyond Chris's description. The picture here on the forum doesn't do it justice.
Thanks Chris and thank your brother for me. The print will have a treasured place on the wall.

That's fabulous, RC...thanks so much. We figured if we decided to do it, we'd do it right. So glad it's to your liking.
