I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but since your post was several years ago I am sure you have discovered the true value of your James Hagen print. It is also interesting to look at each one of his prints. The AP Art and Design Selected Works and Sustained Investigation Rubrics outline the criteria by which student portfolios will be scored.

Value of an "Artist's Proof" as compared to a numbered print? Thanks Be aware also that some works although with the same title could be a secondary run of a previous edition which are usually less valuable than the first run e.g. Did you have any information to offer that would be of help to the person that asked the question.
I was taken in by the huge numbers of these on the internet myself and snapped up three of them at a Goodwill. The most powerful tool every conceived by man. APs are usually produced in smaller numbers than the general edition, are marked as APs, and may be signed and numbered as well.
Hope that helps...and correct me if I'm wrong.Please don't quote Wikipedia - it's information written by layman, companies, amateur writers and those who have a vested interest.
I find many errors in it, as it is written by the general internet public. Your Shopping Cart will be saved and you'll be given a link. Why would you assert an Artist Proof is worth less when everything that Wiki describes is reasonable, intelligent, and most likely correct? Which is better in buying?I have the original Plate (etching steel) from Canton Denim label Jeans, USA circa 1930-1950. I am the not so happy buyer of three of this alleged artist works.

If anyone can prove "James Hagen" exists I would love to hear where to find him. I am curious as to whether this print has the same sort of value as those numbered prints???

The more prints produced - the less quality in higher numbers. If you only download one thing this year, make it this. Most often they will cost between 20% and 50% more than a signed and numbered print from the same edition.As a valuer and appraiser of fine art (and not an online dealer) I can advise without bias that Artist's Proofs (APs), Printer's Proofs, Trial Proofs, Hors d'Commerce and any other 'Proof' are no more valuable to the secondary market than a numbered work from an edition. One could argue that un-numbered APs are more common than individual numbered works (there being only one work with the said individual number but more APs without numbers) and therefore less valuable.Advising that an AP or any other 'proof' is intrinsically (and by definition) more valuable than a numbered work is nothing more than a marketing ploy to the uninitiated.
