The rollerskating photo is killer.
Obviously shot on his tennis court at the Galpin home.

I've tried to research it so dont buy my head off! I dont understand it. So there's limited print edition of photos you can buy? More than one of each? Why would you buy one if Katz and Paisley could just do another print or release a book for $£30 in the future. Im confused.

It looks like there are 10 prints of each photo, each signed and numbered from Katz. It also says that once each addition is sold out, these photos will never be available again from Katz for purchase.

I take that to mean that these featured photos will probably not be in a book from Katz.

It wouldn't stop them being a book...if that ever happens...it's just that these are signed pieces of art...one of kind (or 10 of a kind, if you like) reproduced on quality paper; museum ready images. They'll look spectacular. Very different from a dang book.

Featuring these pictures in a book would cheapen the quality of them. They're simply too beautiful for Jeff(whom is still a sought after photographer) to lower himself to the level of a book. Unless he does a high glossed coffee table book.

Jeff's photos are everything.....


But way out of my budget.

You don't even know why you contributed to this thread do you? You mean like Warhol, Lebowitz, DiCorcia et al? They lowered themselves pretty low then. Fool.

Jeff Katz was always my favorite photographer, for many decades. Better than Annie.

That said, i think that SOTT album cover on that site is better than the released one!

.
I prefer the released version of the SOTT cover photo but it's interesting to see that they shot two batches of photos: one with a blue drum kit and a matching turtleneck on Prince and one where both the drums and his turtleneck are yellow.
.

I always thought he only shot Prince in a blue turtleneck and te blue drumkit and later altered it to yellow (pre photoshop).

Lucky we are that the copyright terms are discreet & not in the middle of pictures.

I downloaded all of them & come in addtion to my Jeff Katz collection...

There are several shots with yellow and several with blue colours – changing colours in postproduction in 1987 and on several photos would've been a massive task.

Oops sorry...it's picture n°11 but I like as well the n°100. Some are not worth to be purchased (example n°284).

Both of your picks are nice. #284 is for the hand freaks.

Prince(r.i.p.) was VERY photogenic...And was VERY meticulous about his carefully crafted, flawless, looks, & image.

Do you have an issue with someone making money off their own work?

Hands down the most interesting photo set released so far imo.

The quality of some of these shots is exceptional. The parade era stuff is killer

I remember the lead up promotion to U.T.C.M.. It was different posters of different poses of Prince(r.i.p.) posted everywhere where I lived. Too bad they were hard to pull off the surface.

I've picked my one favorite pic out of all of them. Image # 286
