Maybe.  But I'm still suspicious.  Where did it come from?  And does it in fact say "artist proof' on the bottom?

  here's the wikipedia entry on "artists proof":
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist's_proof
  as far as i know, they artists proofs *are* legit; they are done in advance of the rest of ltd runs - i actually have an artists' proof of the first alex ross wb store plate, done about 10 years ago; i ordered one from a wb store, and they were unable to get one, because it had just sold out.  however, the store *was* able to get me an artists' proof - it is identical in every way, except where it says "number ___ of ____", it has the words "artist proof", instead of a number.
  i would say this item is on the up-and-up.

    My knee jerk reaction is that it's a load of crap.

    Sergio did the scuplture.  It's hard to believe he would have left an 'artists' proof" out there.  

    The certificate is no big deal.  It is equally easy to lose it as it is to make one.  

    But the underside of each statue is numbered and has a Groo logo.  I would be really curious to see the stue and especially what the underside looks like.  

    I take it this is not on ebay?

      Hi Guys,



      I am looking to buy a CHEESE DIP statue, but they mention it is an “Artist proof” edition, this edition has no certificate.

      Does anyone have any info about “Artist proof” Cheese dip statues? Are they worth buying? 





      Kind Regards,

      Jason Smith
