Limited Edition Prints: Edition 1 published

By

The images for this edition (these editions) of original lithographs were hand-drawn by the artist on a single Bavarian limestone.  Processing, proofing, and printing were done by hand by Wayne Kimball in Pleasant Grove, Utah.  Trial proofing took place in early summer, and edition printing was completed in late July 1996.

This edition is comprised only of the impressions enumerated in the following table.  (The numbers are identical for all three images.)  All other impressions have been destroyed.  Each impression of each image is hand-signed, titled, dated (year), and numbered or proof-designated by the artist.  The printer's chop is embossed into the margin of each impression.  The images on the stone have been effaced in such a way as to make the printing of proofs similar to those in this (these) edition(s) impossible.

See Lithographic fine art printing process for an illustrated explanation of the process summarized here.
