So these Magnum square print sales have been going on for a few years and I'm wondering if anyone has bought prints in the past that they're not sure about anymore.
For anyone who doesn't know what I'm talking about, Magnum Photos (more recently together with Aperture) occasionally (yearly?) holds a one-week print sale where they sell selected signed or estate stamped 6x6in prints for the price of $100.
Last year I bought a couple of pictures, one of them a Bruce Davidson print that I'm not so sure about anymore. It's a lovely photograph but I found myself regretting the purchase as I had my eyes on another one by Leonard Freed but ended up going with the Davidson for the simple reason that it was signed by the artist whereas the other one was estate stamped.
Is anybody else in a similar situation? Or maybe you just had one up on a wall for a while and you're tired of looking at it? Maybe we could all post our pictures and make some nice swaps happen?
