Re: Print exchange

2004-12-18 by Jerry Hadam

Of course your situation may be different, but as a possible more 
innocent view of things consider this: I bought into and manage a 
framing and gallery business in May. I have come across several 
wonderful pieces of art that do not have any information at all about 
ownership, creator or anything. My obligation to myself and the other 
stock holders is to maintain profitability. So....I am selling all the 
"found" artwork in my shop.

Maybe there is a less innocent reason for your prints being sold that 
way, but just throwing it out there. I wish you the best and may all of 
your photographs sell.
