Re: [Digital BW] limited editions

2005-03-10 by J Vee

I edition an image as 1st ed 1/50, 2/50 + 10 AP.  When finished, do the same
for 2nd ed etc.  Truly different sizes = different series.  Just my
compromise and seems honest to me.  I include a statement with each print
sold about care, as well as ³other editions and other sizes may exist².
