Re: Limited editions

2004-05-25 by Tom Andrews

Hi Richard,

A poster is usually done in very large numbers with an offset press and is of 
significantly poorer quality than a good inkjet print.   Exceeding your limited 
edition by trying to print at a different size on a different paper with or 
without a watermark would put you in the same ethical hot water.

defined as a legitimate poster and not as an extra print undermining the 
legitimacy of your previous limited editions?

the bottom, so that it is visibly different from my limited editions - would that 
be legitimate? For poster purposes, I wonder if sprayed Heavyweight Matte 
would be ok?
