I recently sold twenty - 20" x 30" prints, matted and framed to a new local bank. The local newspaper caught wind of it and asked for an interview after viewing the photos at the bank and talking with the bank manager.

Congrats Michael. If you are doing that sort of sales I'd say it is more than a hobby by this point.

Thanks Guys!

It's a new local bank with local investors, there are only two branches at this point.
Should be pretty solvent....they don't have many loans out, and I would bet they are pretty cautious.
