Prior to this, virtually all prints (and engravings) were produced as <font color="#0000ff"> illustrations</font> to be included in a manuscript, book, newspaper, or pamphlet. Therefore, a vast majority of original prints have been over the years removed from these original sources. Prints are produced using many different techniques: <font color="#0000ff">relief printing</font> (woodcut & wood engraving), <font color="#0000ff">intaglio printing</font> (steel & copper plate engraving, drypoint, aquatint, etc), and <font color="#0000ff">planographic printing</font> (lithography, serigraphy, inkjet, laser, etc.). Visit <a href="http://www.printdealers.com/learn.cfm">The International Fine Print Dealers Association </a> for more information. While the commercial value of a print depends on such factors as age, rarity, and condition, the real value of a print is its tie to its history and/or its esthetic beauty. <font color="#0000ff">Note: the term "engraving" is used to denote a print made from an engraved plate or block.</font></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="36" width="100%"> <p align="center"><font color="#0000ff" size="6">H</font><font size="5"><font color="#ff0000" size="6">istory-</font><font color="#0000ff" size="6">O</font><font color="#ff0000" size="6">n-</font><font color="#0000ff" size="6">P</font><font color="#ff0000" size="6">aper</font></font></p></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="19" width="100%"> <p align="center"><font size="3">Contact me at  <a href="mailto:cerash@aol.com">cerash@aol.com</a> if you are looking for prints of a specific topic.</font></p></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="19" width="100%"> <p align="center"><b><font size="3">Item #0209-T090</font></b></p></td> </tr></tbody></table>
