For those of you who bought "Color Picture" in our last Print Offer, good news—the prints are all finished and were shipped from DSI in Boston yesterday. Zander and I have gathered all the packaging materials here, and we'll be working to get the prints packed and shipped off to everybody at the end of this week and into next. I'll post another update once everything has shipped.
Incidentally, the photograph is now a limited edition of 50, plus three artist's proofs (A/P)—the three that DSI actually sent me as proofs. So your print will be signed and numbered.

Hi there!
Since ‘un-boxing’ videos are so common on Youtube, will you be offering a 'boxing' video, you know, just for balance?

Mike, a few months ago you made a persuasive argument against numbered print series. Interesting that you decided to number this print run. Would you share why you decided to number the series?

H Richard Paul,
Sure...it's because I consider the printing method to be an integral part of the picture, and I very much doubt I'll ever pay for another run of the print from DSI. I'll have a number left over from this 50, after the ones that sold have been delivered. Ergo, I'm pretty sure there will never be any more prints, whether I "limit" the edition or not.
So, might as well.
Mike

Hopefully you made some money on this sale.
