Photogold gallery specialises in the secondary market , particularly Jack Vettriano, Beryl Cook and David Shepherd prints , and we regularly source sold-out copies for our many customers on a daily basis. Phone 07723-538941 or contact us online.
Fine art limited edition prints are published in editions of 100 to 950 Once the last copy of any particular issue is sold by the publisher that issue is then sold out.
Whilst an issue is sold out from the publisher, further copies often become available on what is known as the “secondary market”. Typically, these are copies that have been acquired by galleries and dealers anticipating a sell-out issue and the consequent increase in value as demand drives prices upwards. Secondary Market copies are therefore, usually, mint unsold copies and have rarely been pre-owned.
How much could a secondary market copy cost?
Typically, secondary market prices can initially be between 10 – 50% higher than the original published price and, in some cases, pieces that are very much in demand can double in price very quickly indeed.
As specialists in this secondary market, we have many contacts with dealers, private collectors and galleries both in the UK and internationally. We can source sold-out copies at the best possible price .
We can usually manage to find the piece you are looking for but, occasionally, where rarer issues are unavailable, we will take your details and contact you should a copy come on the market.

Dance and the intriguing cultures around it have inspired artists since ancient times. As well as being a rich and meaningful subject for artists, dance also presents the interesting technical challenge of capturing the human form in movement.
This exhibition explores the theme of dance through key artworks from across the National Collection. It juxtaposes works of art made in very different periods, styles and media, ranging from two beautiful nineteenth-century studies of classical ballet dancers by Edgar Degas, to an exuberant late-1950s linocut by Pablo Picasso.
The most recent works, two photographs by Diane Arbus from the ARTIST ROOMS collection jointly owned by the National Galleries of Scotland and Tate, successfully capture the sense of mystery and fascination associated with the dance profession.
Dance also unites dynamic studies of high-kicking dancers by Arthur Melville from the National Gallery of Scotland and Walter Sickert from the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art.
24th April to 6th June 2010 | Admission free
