[QUOTE="User 67, post: 7012, member: 67"]Off Set Printing is a photo-mechanical process that uses a metal (usually aluminum) plate. These were the types presses used by "Quick Print" print shops that stood in every neighbourhood and town before kinkos and xerox printing took over. God only know what it is suppose to mean other than, "this is an ordinary print but we want you to believe it is special." That type of print has nothing to do with the artist. Not stupid at all. The print is basically worthless, the frame was worth more. The print, when nicely framed, might have a value. Personally, I prefer when these types of prints have the museum information cut away, but others like to keep it. That depends on your decorative taste. And if someone has an affinity for the Museum or Sponcer (like the ADL). This is not a collectible print. Never was. Like I tried to say, if you hang on to it for 40 years, there is a slim chance that instead of being worth less than $1, it gains in value to $5 in today's money. But I wouldn't bet on it.
