Magnum Square Prints, by gd79 on Oct 30, 2017 15:50:49 GMT 1, Magnum Square Print sale has launched today. Excellent site to pick up some top notch photography (hat tip to dranfan who let me know about this some months ago). All signed editions of 50. All 100 bucks, or 200 custom framed. Pick from some of the true heavyweights. It really is an excellent sale.
shop.magnumphotos.com
i picked up 7 and counting... First thing in my cart was the Matthew Porter, which is his signature image and a very collectable artist. I could easily add ten more from the list. Probably twenty. My wife pushed me into the Dennis Stock too, which is apparently a big deal if you like James Dean (as her 15 year old self did)
if anyone else is buying, would love to hear your first picks.

Apologies right you are! Timed edition, 5 days to run. Plenty of scope to add to my order

Magnum Square Prints, by abstrakted on Oct 31, 2017 12:01:02 GMT 1, they are very little..the image 5.5inches (14cm) along the longest edge..need to choose square compositions for best value ; )
Totally agree. I bought a couple last year and these biotches are SMALL. The image is literally the size of a postcard for landscape compositions.
A totally square composition would be best. This hyena man from Pieter Hugo is pretty badass:

Instead of buying 7, just put the cash into a proper big one, I'd say.

Agree with that, though right now I need small prints due to lack of big free walls. For me, a couple will go up but most will remain in a nice book with similar sized smaller prints.

... the size gives you different opportunities for placement around the home ...
... I really like the concept and format ๐

It's not a sale in that sense, they are only around for these 4 days. They are typically available in larger sizes / smaller editions for several thousands.

Magnum Square Prints, by mcgill14 on Nov 3, 2017 0:00:37 GMT 1, Pushed the button on the Don McCullin as a gift for my son in law who is very much in to photography. These Magnum 6x6 offers are a great way to get a signed piece by some monumentally serious photographers. Bought an Elliot Erwitt piece the last time they did this and its a stunning little print.

Magnum Square Prints, by jp on Nov 3, 2017 1:53:25 GMT 1, I picked up the Elliot Erwitt because I'm a big fan of his work. I have several of his books including Elliot Erwitt Personal Best and his most recent, Pittsburgh 1950. Both are excellent. He's one of the original Magnum photographers, having joined in 1953. He is 89 now, so I figure if I can get signed work, however small, for $100.00, I should do it now.
Also picked up the Matthew Porter just because I like the image and it's from a street in my home town so it means something extra to me.
For those of you that think these prints are tiny, yes they are. But they will look great framed as a group, and this is a great way to put up multiple prints as a theme, either by subject matter, color, artist, etc. And without breaking the bank.

Magnum Square Prints, by gd79 on Nov 3, 2017 9:54:31 GMT 1, Last few hours. So many temptations.
Looking at the Engstrom again. Looks great framed. Mark Power. Kubota. I didn't even notice the fusco first time around.
Need to stay disciplined...
And of course they are small, they are a hundred bucks. If you want a 90x70 print then you wouldn't be able to print a stock image at this quality for close for that. Few on this forum would balk at spending 100 bucks on an unlimited Banksy postcard
