Title: Special Artist's Edition
Post by: kdj on October 27, 2015, 07:30:10 PM

Looking for information on my Dave Riebe "Echoes of Yesterday", Special Artists Edition print.
The subject is the Red Wing Depot, in Red Wing, MN. It is signed, numbered 505/650, and titled in pencil, by Riebe.

My questions are:
how does this differ from an artists proof ?
Is it's value different because it is a Special Artists Edition print?
Could this be a lithograph? I read about how to tell if a picture is a litho but until I see one for sure I would doubt my own opinion on that...
Thank you for your advice!

It's most likely a print than a litho

A lithograph is just more of a better quality print and better made. Lithographs are cayan, magenta, yellow, and black tiny dots to make up the image you see as the viewer.

If you go on Google and type in the difference between a lithograph and a print. It will tell you. Also there is a lot more about lithographs than what I told you. Just type in what is a lithograph and it will tell you everything you need to know
