- Open Edition - Prints or reproductions of artwork that is printed in the standard card size. Open editions can be printed and reprinted depending on the demand for the card. There is no limit to how many will be printed. This can also be a mini-print of a larger original artwork.
- Limited Edition - This type is also a print/reproduction, but there is a limit to how many cards will be ever printed/sold. These cards are more valuable then open edition cards, because there is only a limited amount of each card that is available in the world. Many times, limited edition cards will be numbered on the back of the card.
- Original Artwork - This card is a unique piece of artwork done by the artist. It can be painted or drawn, but it will be 100% original and only one card exists in the world. This type of card is the most valuable.
An Art Card or Artists Trading Card is an original or print piece of fine art that measures 3.5 x 2.5 which is the size of a standard baseball card. Art cards have been around for a century or so longer than baseball cards and were designed for trading between artists. These little gems are hugely collectible. They are also known as ACEO although ACEO's are designed to be sold not traded. This site is designed to tell you all you need to know about art cards and ACEO. Please post a comment.
