When were the fine art prints of An Evening Out and Boating Day signed with the name Thomas Kinkade?
When these prints were first released in 1989 they bore only Thom’s original Girrard’ signature and their purchasers had no knowledge they were buying art created by Thomas Kinkade under a brush name. It was not until December of 2001, after it had become more broadly known that Robert Girrard’ is Thomas Kinkade, that Thomas Kinkade went to Sacramento, California, where the prints had been stored for many years, to resign them, adding the Thomas Kinkade signature.
