| Every print in the collection is matted and mounted using only museum quality acid-free materials (Off-white 100% cotton rag mat, acid-free 'fomecore' backing, framer's tape, etc) and each is sealed in a clear plactic sleeve. Every mat has at least two hand applied "French lines" which add focus and just a touch of elegance. Every print is an original book plate. A copy of the title page from the source book is included with each purchase. These title pages indentify the publisher, the country of publication, the author, the copyright date (usually), and often the name of the illustrator. The price range is from $70 to $175 with the vast majority priced between $95 and $115 |
