Limited edition reproductions are produced in limited
numbers, which makes the image more exclusive. The market
price can rise over time, if demand outstrips supply.
Edition sizes vary but are limited by market forces,
not by physical constraints of the printmaking method.
the Fine Art Trade Guild print standards sets a maximum
edition size of 1950, but recommends edition sizes of
below 1000 worldwide. Most limited editions are signed
and numbered in pencil by the artist with a commitment
that no other reproduction of the image will be made.
