Late last year Mark Vallen worked with master printer John Greco of Josephine Press, to finally publish the suite of prints that should have been issued in ‘79. Each print in the edition was hand pulled by master-printer John Greco on beautiful heavey white paper (acid free) using Dan Smith traditional relief ink; all prints are embossed in the lower right corner with the Josephine Press logo. Adhering to the time-honered practice in the traditional printmaking, a final “cancelation print” was made after Mark Vallen cut a large “X” cut through the linoleum block- signifying the edition is closed and no further print can be published form the block.
