Re: Value of digital prints in the future

I know of a case where an photographer started an edition in dye and had a printing company  do the printing. Photographer had the prints printed up only when he sold them. Over time the  printing company got tired of keeping the old dye machine around when they had moved on to pigment prints. Thus the later numbered prints in the edition had a more archival life span than the earlier numbered one printed on dye. So the reverse of the lithograph editions where the earlier numbered prints in an edition are more valuable becomes true in the technological advancements in printing.
