<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manycats, post: 2626735, member: 13761&quot;]These MAY be examples for hand-colorists, so that each print colored would have the same color scheme, and the numbers, very maybe, something to do with who was coloring or how many were completed. But those are very tenuous guesses.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some of them are clearly volume numbers from a collected works set, of which, as you note there are...many. And some might be page placement directions for binders, but they would know where that would be, so there&#039;d be only one, not several with some crossed out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Because they don&#039;t affect the image, they could easily be &#039;matted out&#039; in framing, so I don&#039;t think the value (not all that high, in my experience), would be affected by the numbers, which, unless one could figure out some interesting meaning, certainly don&#039;t add any value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
