Elliott Landy is publishing a limited edition of fine art lithographic reproductions of two of the most famous Band photographs of all time. These two photos were featured on the album jackets of The Band's first two albums, Music from Big Pink and The Band.
The image size of the prints are aproximately 12 x 18 inches on a 16 x 22 inch sheet. The photographs are printed in antique brown tones, to have the antique, earthy feeling, which they were intended to have when Elliott took them. These are his own comments on the prints:
Finally, after I rejected proof after proof after proof, and waited so many weeks, we have perfect reproduction quality of the two images. They are just the way I wanted them to look, in the beginning, years ago, and I cannot see any difference in visual quality between the prints we will be selling and the original photographic prints. In fact, the reproductions are a bit better, as I had some blemish spots digitally retouched. I must say I am happy about it.
Prices
An edition of five thousand copies of each print
will
be sold, with a printed facsimile of Elliott's signature making these
prints look nearly identical
with his archival photographic prints, which sell
for
hundreds of dollars more.
The prices for the prints are $50 each, plus shipping and handling.
In addition Elliott will individually sign a
limited
number of copies of these lithos, and these will cost $100 each or two
for
$175.
How to order
If you want to order prints, or have any questions, please
send an e-mail to Ted Harris.
Shipping and handling
will depend on the destination.
Feedback from buyers
From John Donabie, Toronto:
Last night I received my Elliott Landy litho of "The Band." It was well worth the wait. The quality of the print is the most stunning and immaculate version of this classic photo I have ever seen. Mr. Landy is correct when he says that the photos, as shown on this site, do not do them justice. I have never seen this classic picture so crisp and clean. Thank you to Mr. Landy and his people for the excellent work and always making me feel comfortable when I would e-mail them wondering when it was coming. If you have the opportunity to purchase one or both of these prints, I would encourage you to do so. This is a wonderful momento to the world's greatest Band. As I type, my Litho is being mounted and laminated.From Phil Thompson:

The litho arrived last week, while I was away for a few days. It looks great, and will be terrific framed. Thanks for the great turnaround time and excellent service.
