Please Note: Watch out for fake prints on ebay. Some overseas sellers are claiming they have legitimate prints for sale and are selling them under license. If you are unsure if they are legit, ask the seller if the print is personally signed by the artist. If you are still in doubt, please don't hesitate to contact me with any concerns. |
A Few Words on Prints
What are Prints? Prints are high quality reproductions of original artworks. A Limited Edition Print indicates there will only be a set number and will not be re-printed. Print Tip: keep all prints away from direct sunlight or they will fade over time no matter the quality. Are prints good investments? As investments prints are like shares - there is risk. People will inevitably pay what they believe it to be worth. I have been fortunate that many of my limited editions print runs have sold out and some prints that originally sold for just over $100 have later sold at auction for over $5000. But the best rule in purchasing a print is to buy because it appeals or is meaningful to you. For Print Collectors: under each military artwork on this page I have stated its 'Highest Known Resale’. This is the largest amount (that I have heard of) that one of my prints has been re-sold in a single sale, either privately, on ebay or at auction. This may help you gauge the value of your print. |
