When William designates one of his pieces as a Limited-Edition piece, he chooses the total number of prints to be offered in the collection. He withholds the First Printing (FP) of each piece in the collection to keep for himself, or to be offered as the very last print sold of that Limited Edition. The First Printing are also printed on High Gloss High Definition ChromaLuxe Metal sheeting or Face Mounted Acrylic with Museum grade backing and ready for hanging. These pieces are signed FP #1 or 1 or #1 of 10 or #1 of 25 or #1 of 50 depending on the piece. Hand selected pieces are chosen based on overall popularity and can now be purchased in advance of the selection selling out. As with Artist Proofs, First Printings also carry a higher value and will increase in value at a faster rate than the pieces from the body of the collection itself. First Printing pieces require an investment of $1,000 above the standard pricing for Lumachrome HD prints.
To be sure that your selected piece is available, please contact William directly to receive an invoice for purchase. Artist Proofs and First Printings can be personalized.
