I believe in the US, an edition simply has to be declared, i.e. "This is an
edition of1500, of which this is #35."
The same honesty should extend to us with plaster etc. casts. I have claimed
an edition would be 25 pieces but the mold broke down after half that
quantity. In my case, nobody cares!
Legal trouble arises in the art mart with Artist's Proofs, which are outside
the edition quantity, and can vary in quality and are not usually signed.
