I seem to remember prints of the pics being available at the book launch. Coch-y-bonddu may know more.
With Mole's first book we printed 500 A5 prints of six different designs. Never offered for sale but given away free with coarse angling books we sold. These are very nearly gone, maybe 20 or 30 left of a couple of different designs, the rest gone completely. I have seen one sell for £26 on ebay! Another is on ebay finishing tonight, signed by Mole too, though I don't suppose it will make as much.

With Water Colours, Mole's second book, we have again printed 500 A5 prints of six different designs. Again not for sale but we're giving them away free (only one per order) with any coarse angling books we sell. Obviously still plenty in stock of all these.

As far as I'm aware Mole doesn't sell prints. Many of his originals are available though and can be bought if you contact him directly. He had a few of these for sale at the launch.

£19 was a bit more than I thought it would make. That barbel is one of the prints we've still got a few of, maybe 20 or so of them left, unsigned of course.
