If this is the framed collection of picture picks, then it's a set of fakes. These were sold on eBay for quite a while and have no connection with legitimate Prince merchandise. The only official picture pic that I know of is the hologram/prism pick.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I got 3 from the Indigo gigs but I gave one away.
The guitar tech was setting up and Unique and I were right at the front.He seen us eyeing the pics up and said "please dont touch them" we smiled and said of course we wouldn't,he laughed and gave us a handful.
Prince didnt play that night sad
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

Great story. I have some picks that I bought on eBay and a couple from the old Uptown NPG Store. I don't really desire to collect them, I just wanted some stuff to display by my Cloud guitar.
