Editioning

Tracy and Cordelia : Master Printers here at Flatbed have been starting to edition these prints by Frank X Tolbert 2. The Texas Bird Suite is a set of  8 birds and shown here is the Chicken Hawk. Each is 22 x 30 inches on Rives BFK paper. In an edition of 24, they are printing I think around 35 to include imperfections and extras. Working together and inking up three plates, the level of craft and skill is astounding. They work together, methodically through the day and have got up to about 5 per day. Long way to go.
