What does''limited edition'' mean? It means there were a limited number of prints made from an original work.An edition can be limited to any amount.At the bottom or the back of the work,you'll see numbers tha tell you where that particular print fell in the printing secuence and how many prints were made. So ''25/50'' means there were a total of 50 prints made and that yours was number 25. But it's important to realize the number 5 and 50 are equally valuable. Additionally, the artist usually keeps a few extra, which are called artist's proofs, also known as APs.
