About The Photographs

iPHOTOART proudly offers select historic images from The Associated Press as Limited Edition photographic prints. The Associated Press limited editions published by iPHOTOART are silver gelatin photographs printed by hand in a custom photo darkroom in New York City. Black and white photographs are archivally printed on double-weight, fiber-based paper. Color photographs are hand-printed on resin-coated (RC) paper. Limited edition photographs are printed directly from the original camera negative, when available, or when the original negative doesn't exist or is damaged, from a dupe or copy negative housed in The Associated Press archive.

Occasionally, when only a digital file is available, we utilize the latest model of LightJet printer, a laser film recorder, which renders prints that have no dots - only continuous tone pixels. These digital prints are printed on Fuji Crystal ArchiveŽ photographic paper, which is rated for longevity at 61 years or more. The result is a true photographic print on a paper that also could have been exposed in a traditional enlarger.

Limited edition photographs are printed with not less than a 3/4" border top and sides and not less than a 1 1/2" border at the bottom. Each limited edition photographic print is hand-numbered and embossed with The Associated Press or Pulitzer Prize-winner limited edition seal and comes with a hand-numbered Certificate of Authenticity. Select limited edition photographs are signed by the photographer. Typical edition size is 250 plus artist's proof and publisher's proof editions, although many of the Pulitzer Prize Collection photographs feature a much smaller edition size.
