In signing finished work, which date (year) would you indicate: when the 
print was done or when the image was recorded on film?>

if you put the date it was taken (or made in the case of drawing) and 
the date printed -- both -- with hyphen, then you include any work in 
between: 2001-2007         it has always worked for me and if you need 
the month: 2/2001- 7/2007      

mine would sometimes read:
bottom left: 1/24      or       open edition        or nothing

middle to middle right:    white clown     (title)

far right: jean wall penland © 2001-2007     (© optional)    and the 
"chop" at the lower right hand corner after that

or any variation that feels right with the work itself and its size

probably no help, but that is how i do etchings, drawings, photos    jwp/jno
