Head of Sports Images International, Bob Brandt, with artist Helen Rundell, were on press for the approval of the pressrun of the edition print featuring golf greats Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. Each of these prints will be signed by the artist as well as by the two renowned golfers, and are available through Sports Images International in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania [1-800-307-6868]. The prints are done on Somerset Textured paper and are printed as dry trapped, continuous tone, four-color images, in a unique process developed by Mel Hunter of Polaris Press. When the four colors have been laid down, the print is reviewed by Bob, Helen, and Mel, and, as in this case, three additional touch plates were dry-trap overprinted to highlight specific areas in the image. The dry-trap printing process demands a high degree of accuracy in registration and color matching. We are pleased to offer this custom press- work in order to meet the exacting needs of this special project. |
