I hear:

Yeah, it's the best Goodwill ...

It comes with the bow.

To Whom it concerns:
With the birth of Bill Dane on the internet.
I have slowly evolved - changed important ingredients
of my photography - picture making processes.
This includes: a digital camera - computer editing -
printing company - and relationships with traditional
institutions for the presentation and sale of pictures.
Since 1969 I have made sold and gifted pictures.
This was done in various forms.
Hindsight shows the lack of a desirable consistency.
Fraenkel Gallery and Jack Fischer Gallery have
presented and sold pictures of mine over time.
I am changing to a new form for recording the sale of my pictures.
The 'overview' of that process is outlined below. (see 3-7-11)
Pictures purchased before this year 2011 will become 'Special Pictures'.
I understand that this is my declaration and definition.
They are most certainly a class of 'Vintage Print'
and in the traditional sense of the classification.
There should be little confusion about the 'status' of these pictures.
They will be easily identified and differentiated from pictures sold after 2010.
They should have a unique value.
I am sorry if this causes any person grief.
