Low print number, by Jef Aerosol on Jan 6, 2008 19:39:27 GMT 1, I number and sign prints in totatlly random order, usually after having checked them all, so they've all been mixed before being signed ! The number hasn't got the slightest importance ! You guys always seem to look for incredible details instead of just enjoying the pic ! what will be next ? The clothes worn by the artist on the day he signed the prints ? Whether it was hot or cold (might change the way the ink has dried !) ? Whether the artist is righ handed or left handed ? Can't you just enjoy the images and be simple about it all ?

Funny, I've just been offered a signed Framed Paint Brush from Jose Parla for approx £1000!!!
Now I love Mr Parlas work but thats where I draw the line.... literally!

lol. hi jef. i think as has been mentioned, for me it is very much a peripheral issue neither effecting whether i would or would not buy a print, nor how much i might enjoy the image. but there must be a little something to it, otherwise why would so many artists keep print number 1. cheers

Low print number, by Jef Aerosol on Jan 6, 2008 21:30:21 GMT 1, maybe artists keep print number one because it's the one at the top of the pile, that's all ! I have released very few prints so far but I don't especially keep that one more than any other...

Low print number, by klyde on Jan 6, 2008 21:41:38 GMT 1, Only print I'd pay over the odds for a number would be Micallef GIWBB no 666
I got 689. Pretty close considering the edition.
In regards to print numbers I don't think it makes any difference.

but does it matter, so long as we love the art? when i bought my mwih i didnt know what number i was getting. i bought it cos i loved the print. when it turned out to be a low number i treated it as a bit of a bonus. why not? as i said before it has never made me choose to/not to buy any print.

Hey Jef you could have a point here you know without realising it, clothes, weather etc must affect an artitists mood hence then transfered to the canvas or whatever, I wouldnt know myself not having an ounce of artistic talent, what do you reckon?

Low print number, by Jef Aerosol on Jan 7, 2008 1:31:52 GMT 1, of course, circumstances have effects on all of us ! A piece of art reflects the mood of the artist, and obviously zillions of elements have an influence on that mood, state of mind, health, condition, etc... This can show on an original, of course. But as far as multiples go, this doesn't show unless you start analysing the signature and reckon that the hand was trembling more after having signed a hundred prints ! Or if there's a sweat stain...

Low print number, by rolyateel on Jan 11, 2008 22:17:56 GMT 1, i don't think the print number makes any difference, and certainly wouldn't pay any extra to have a low number however, when I have got a low number in the past I have found myself thinking" cool!!!"
I have 2 Dolk prints with low numbers, and have just bought a Brian Jones print & unexpectedly received AP 5/5 & was chuffed with that

Low print number, by seidbereit on Jan 11, 2008 22:38:44 GMT 1, I'm not so much bothered about low print numbers but I will admit to having a fetish for print numbers that are divisible by 5 . It only started when I bagged myself a #5 Banksy ;D.
I admit I'm a saddo.

I have the same problem with 3's. Even the numbers representing the volume on my TV has to be divided in 3's! It's not good i know!

I just thought to myself surely 1/5 is better, but 5/5 looks nice I guess.
So in general (for people that like numbers) 1st print is sought after since it's freshest through the press, and last number just looks good?
I suppose for a small edition size say under 10 it doesn't matter what number you get, but as the edition size gets larger, then a single digit number might be more appealing.

I have to have a 3 on the end of everything.
Even set my alarm with the time ending with a 3 except for 13 minutes past so i either have to get up at 03 past the hour or 23 mins past!
