Signed photobooks
All the photo books we offer that are signed by their author.
Several types of photobooks are listed here :
- Limited Editions (ou « éditions de tête ») that include a signed print and usually (but not necessarily) a signed copy of the book as well
- trade editions where all or part of the print run is signed by the artist
- books that are typically unsigned but for which we either procured signed copies from the publisher (or directly form the artist) or met the artist and got them to sign our copies
For all of the above, copies that the artists have held in their hands and made unique... pleasing to the eye, but also pleasing to the heart and pleasing for the collector, as they are obviously rarer and more difficult to find.
