Hidden edition #'s, by damullae on Aug 11, 2018 3:19:49 GMT 1, Good morning,ย
question: edition numbers are usually hidden on posted photos, why is that and what is the risk - assume it is around counterfeiting? would expect COA's with unique name etc to provide protection?
Interested in thoughts

Because a lot of people on here and other places try and flip art that doesnโt belong to them to try and middleman pieces. Owners do it to protect their own interests.
Besides, prints are identical. #1 and #37 will look exactly the same. What does the number matter anyway?

Good on you. This has happened to me. I offered a Banksy signed Nola AP and CYW Gold VIP to a gallery to purchase for STOCK/Not to broker and they said โYes, weโre interested and will circle backโ. They posted it on artsy. When I inquired for price/availability through a different email address they offered me the print, using my pictures and said that the print was โtheirsโ and that theyโve had it for years etc. I pinged them on the tellie and yelled at them and told them never to falsely use my inventory like that again and demanded they take it down. Dicks.
I have had forum people contact me directly too offering a work they needed to โliquidateโ. They just took images off of other peoples for sale threads with a jacked up number to try and middle the print. Shameless.

...

Is that next to the artist signature ....? I think Dappy means he puts his signature on the photo he uses to sell the print not on the print itself. It's good practice to include your name or e-mail address in any photos you use to sell stuff. |

The bigger question to me is does Dappy do a COA for his sig?

I'd have expected better from Hamilton Selway, they're not exactly guys with a website working out their bedroom acting big time dealers. Saying that it's easy to through a suit on and appear respectable.
I've had no dealings with any of the above so can't comment otherwise.
