Limited Edition Reproductions
Bob Timberlake limited edition reproductions
are extraordinarily popular. To date, every reproduction that
Bob Timberlake has released has sold out. In fact, all current
Bob Timberlake standard editions are pre-subscribed prior
to their release date and are therefore difficult to obtain.
Several precious editions have a current value on the secondary
collector market of more than ten times their original issue
price.

| Craftsmanship in Fine Printmaking |
| |
| It has always been Bob Timberlake's goal
to produce reproductions that are of the highest quality in
printmaking. Continuous research is carried out to assure that
the best methods of offset lithographic reproduction are utilized,
while still maintaining the spirit of "hands-on" craftsmanship
of fine original printmaking. |

Authenticity
|
| |
Once the artist's approval is obtained, each
reproduction is embossed with Bob Timberlake's signature and
copyright date before the entire image area is debossed into
the paper. After this procedure, each reproduction is hand-deckled.
At this stage, the reproduction is ready for Bob Timberlake's
hand signature. Only those reproductions that are perfect
are signed.
After Bob Timberlake has inspected and signed an edition,
each reproduction is carefully packaged in a specially designed
portfolio that displays and protects the reproduction. Special
care is taken in the design of this portfolio so that the
materials used in packaging do not damage the reproduction.

Highest Quality Materials
Only the finest 100% cotton rag paper is used
to produce each Bob Timberlake reproduction. This paper is
the finest available and is completely free of any acidic
properties. Extensive research has been carried out on various
printing inks to find the most fade-resistant pigments available
on the market.

Faithful Reproduction of the Artist's Work |
| |
Bob Timberlake's reproductions are created
directly from his original works of art. Each painting is
carefully separated into four primary colors. After several
"proofings," the film is used to create as many
as twenty-four individual color plates that may be necessary
to produce a faithful reproduction of an original Timberlake
painting.
|
| |
|
After the printer has executed each reproduction,
Bob Timberlake is consulted to give his final approval to
the reproduction. The limited-edition reproduction is carefully
compared to the original painting to assure fidelity in every
aspect of the print process.
