Skating and winter scenes
Her publisher’s shop keeps a category of its own for these prints, “Skaters/Sleds”, and dealers list skating prints dated from 1986 to 2015.123
A dealer describes Skating Free (1989) as a young couple skating together in snow-covered countryside beside a farmhouse and a country church.4
Winter’s Delight (1994) is the largest sheet we found, 30½ × 21 11/16 inches, and was issued at $240. The publisher’s shop says its estimated current value “is not established”.1
Winter in the Valley (1998) shows the P. Buckley Moss Museum in Waynesboro, which the publisher says was completed in 1989.5

How to identify these prints
The dealer lists the skating prints of the 1980s and 2005 as numbered limited-edition lithographs, and those of 2014 and 2015 as giclées in editions of 250.49103
The range of sold prices for this theme is wide. Size, edition and date differ a great deal from print to print, so compare a listing with others of the same title.
P. Buckley Moss prints in general
Her publisher explains the numbering. The number is usually written in the lower margin in the form X/YY: the print’s own number over the size of the edition. “AP” before the number marks an artist’s proof.11
The signature may not be by hand. Her publisher says limited-edition prints are typically signed by the artist or carry a mechanically applied signature, put on by a signing machine called an Autopen. The year of publication is typically put near the signature, with a © symbol beside it.11
The publisher’s shop gives edition sizes in the form “1,000 and 25 artist’s proofs”. One thousand is the usual figure on the pages we read. A dealer says editions were once almost always a thousand and are now more often about 250.12113
