<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 680772, member: 56"]I doubt that the word "proof" will add much to the value. This has the look of a book or magazine print. A proof is supposed to be a trial state, pulled to make sure the image looks as it is supposed to look before going into production. Why that would be printed on the paper, I don't know. Maybe this was done so the print could be submitted for approval by someone. Maybe it was produced in a small edition before being used elsewhere. Maybe none of the above.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
