How to identify it
The dealer’s copy is signed and marked AP 3/16, an artist’s proof and not a copy from the numbered edition.1
Gordon Mortensen prints in general
Mortensen has described the method himself. He uses one block. Before each color he cuts away what is to stay as it is, prints that color on every sheet of the edition, and cuts again, until the print is finished and most of the surface of the block is cut away.2
The prints are signed in pencil at lower right, and titled, dated and numbered in pencil. The number is written as the copy over the edition, such as 31/130.345
Editions are small. Most of the prints on this site with a recorded edition were printed in 130 copies; Wild Phlox is 140.34567
