Dear Friends,
Thank you to all who invested in my 2011 Collectors Print Specials! The images for this year have been selected and with a savings of 45% off the full retail price of each print, this is an affordable way to add prints to your personal collection.
Barber Chair, Saloon, Bannack State Park, MT, 2011
There is one big change in this this year’s print specials: Each print will be offered as a limited edition of 25 at the 5” x 7” platinum print size. Images will continue to be available for $225.00 (which includes shipping). The “special” price will only be available during the month the print is on special. The full retail price ($500.00 plus shipping) begins on the first day of the following month. If you buy all four prints during the year, you will receive a free bonus print in December.
In addition, if you know that you plan to invest in all four images, register with us when you order the February print special and arrange to keep your billing information on file. This will insure you don’t miss a single image in this year’s series!
The Collectors Print Special (IX) for February 2012 is a 5 x7 vertical platinum print from Montana. Barber Chair, Saloon, Bannack State Park, MT was shot in 2011 during an exploratory trip for the new Ghost Towns of Montana workshop. Gold was discovered in Bannack, Montana’s first territorial capital, and approximately 3000 people called it home by 1863. It is an intact, high plains western town containing nineteen buildings, including a saloon, school, Masonic Hall, two hotels, jail and a variety of other businesses and houses. In the saloon, the incongruity of the barber chair on one side of the narrow room and the long bar down the other side gave pause for thought as I photographed the changing shadows on its surface. The image was made with a Heliar 240 mm lens on my 5 x 7 Canum camera.
In summary, the specifics for the 2012 Collectors Print Special are:
- 5 x 7 platinum print, signed, numbered and unmated
- Quarterly offerings: February, May, August & November
- Discounted price $225.00 includes shipping
- Special pricing only available during month of offer
- Buy all 4 prints – get bonus print FREE!
- Reserve all four prints at the beginning of the year to insure you don’t miss out on any Collectors Print Special in 2012!
The order form can be downloaded for both snail mail and e-mail or you can call in your order to (207) 230-0199. Just be sure to order before February 29, 2012 to reserve your copy of this first print in the 2012 Collectors Print Special!
All the best,
Tillman
