I know I'm the resident trouble-maker and curmudgeon asshole, but I have a
question:
Why would you want to do that?
To me, a numbered, limited edition of anything is just another way of the
person who made it saying, "Hey, I'm going to be famous someday, so if you buy
this now, it'll not only appreciate in value, but you'll be able to show it off
to all your friends and aquaintances, who will be envious and can't help but
admire you even more for being so clever and astute as to buy one, or more, of
these things that I, a soon-to-be famous artist, have made in a limited supply."
WWAD?
Anyway, Bill, glad you had a safe and enjoyable trip and that, apparently, you
got some wonderful photographs, which you could just sell as many unnumbered
and unpretentious copies of as the market will bear.
Walt, running and hiding (again)
