Break-up Sale Prints and Originals, by Filipino Box Spring Hog on Aug 18, 2009 1:45:17 GMT 1, It is a difficult time for me as well as for my former fiance. Thanks for the condolences everyone.
The Ryden is a print - from an edition of 100 (split into 50 gallery prints and 50 AP prints - the AP's were never for sale - Mark just liked the way the print came out and wanted 50 of them to give away to his friends, family, etc.)
I've received numerous inquires in regards to the Afghan Girl photo. I purchased it in Oct. 2008 from a Phillips de Pury auction in New York. I paid $7500 for the photo. It is not an editioned photo - It was developed and printed by Steve Mccurry - and it is of course signed.
The same photo sold in July 2009 for $7500 (I don't know if that included the buyer's fees or not). So, the value is holding steady and if anything it is probably worth a bit more now as kodochrome is no longer being made and this is certainly the most famous and well regarded photo ever shot with that film. Also, Steve Mccurry is probably the most renowned photographer to ever use that type of film. Not to beat a dead horse but, Dye Transfer prints are not something done too often and Mccurry is the master of that developing technique. It was lot #88 in their Oct. 25th, (I think) - 2008 sale - if anyone wants to check for yourself.
I would sell this unframed - flat packed and fully insured - for a piece of this nature I wouldn't want to risk the glass breaking and cutting open the photograph.

Break-up Sale Prints and Originals, by Filipino Box Spring Hog on Aug 19, 2009 15:25:09 GMT 1, Thanks HC. Once upon a time I had a collection I was really proud of - seems it's almost harder to hold onto the best pieces than it is to acquire them.
I just want to bump this thread a little bit - If anyone is thinking of making an offer please do so - thanks again to everyone for the kind words.
