Peter Scott Unsigned Open Edition Prints
As an extremely popular artist, reproductions of Sir Peter's work were always in great demand. Many prints were issued in open, unsigned editions, and these prints were produced by several publishers.
Probably the best known open editions were published by The Medici Society Ltd. An extensive list of titles published by The Medici Society can be seen HERE.
A well-known edition of unsigned Sir Peter Scott prints was a set of three RSPCA 150th Anniversary prints, published in 1974. Click here for more information and photos of the prints.
As the creator of the paintings and drawings these publishers reproduced, and issued as decorative prints, Sir Peter will have received proof copies of them. He is known to have personally signed the odd copy of an 'unsigned', open edition print to give to friends as gifts, or to donate to charity, or to sell for fund-raising purposes. Such prints would bear a further signature, in addition to the printed signature visible within the image itself.
