Like many photographers, Steve McCurry has representation from multiple galleries around the world. Call or email one of the galleries that represents him. Afghan girl is an open edition and can be purchased directly from the artist through a gallery. I have personally purchased from Photoeye, who represent him in the US, along with several other Magnum photographers. Here is the link you want:
www.photoeye.com/gallery/forms2/index.cfm?image=1&id=84838&imagePosition=1&Door=3&Portfolio=Portfolio1&Gallery=3
The gallery director is Anne Kelly. Call her and she should be able to answer all of your questions, or point you to the right gallery if you are not in the US and do not want to purchase overseas.

I bought the rights for this one from Getty in Sep 2006. Later it got pulled form Getty , lucky for me I was unaffected as I had already bought the rights for it.
Great seller for me.

Afghan Girl, by Filipino Box Spring Hog on Apr 17, 2009 23:07:33 GMT 1, There are different methods of making photographs - my particular print is not part of an edition - it is a dye transfer print. There are also dye destruction prints of this image which is a different process and I'd imagine there are many other kinds as well - each with their own process involved. I know little to nothing about photography but, I did look up these processes and have a basic understanding of how they work. I think what you end up with all depends on who you get your photo from. Steve Mccurry is a master photographer and if he develops the photo, you will no doubt end up with the best possible version of that photo - if someone is just printing off giclee's of this photo because they own the rights than it's not going to be as nice as one that has been hand printed by the actual master photographer. Of course, the price will be more or less, depending on who's doing the work in the dark room or pressing the button on the printer for the giclee.
