I have been the biggest proponent of editions since I started collecting art three years ago. From a gallery perspective, as a collector, editions make sense because you can display the artwork whether it's a one-of-one or not. From a cultural relevance perspective, the more people who have skin in the game and care about it, the more relevant it will be down the line. The idea of selling a one-of-one to a collector who then disappears and doesn't honor that artwork seems kind of sad. The reason why I loved editions when I first started collecting was because it was the only place in the photography market on Eth where there was liquidity. Even though I was not planning on selling, it seemed to be a safer purchase when I was just getting my feet wet. I am thinking of Drift, @cathsimard, and @reubenwu who were some of the first artists I collected from who paved the way for the rest of us. They had beautiful editions of around 200 or so which was enough to have liquidity.
