Douglas Dollars is Six Times Alive

December 5th 2009

Please excuse this brief advertisement, but I think you might be interested in something I’ve spent a lot of time working on.

CARTOGRAPHY I-III
Four years of photography showcasing left-behind shopping carts in the urban setting.

THE BOOK*: Cartography Volume I-III, 68pgs, 12” x 12”

THE PRINTS**: 62 prints, limited to 20 copies each then never sold again
Available in sizes from 4”x6” through 24”x36”.

Prints start at $5 and extend into much more complex mounted and framed options. I’m not here as a salesman, I’m here as Doug, and happy to put my name on the line for what I have available. That also said, if you have any questions or troubles ordering, let me know.

Large orders:
If you’re interested in five or more prints (any combination of sizes) contact me and I’ll figure out some way to set up a discount. Yes, it’s a one-man shop. An order of five or more is large.

Stock used:
Lustre prints: Kodak Supra Endura
Matte prints: Kodak Edge
Metallic prints: Kodak Professional Endura
Glossy is not an option because glossy is disgusting.

Truly, thank you,
Doug

* This is purposely over-priced and serves as a physical document of this series. Do not buy it unless you’re really sure you want it
** These are as reasonably priced as I could go for considering the print lab quality, and it would make me very happy if you picked any up, even at the smallest size

+++++++
BONUS ROUND: Re-blog this Tumblr post, then email me. Any prints you order will be 20% off.

This is going very well.

Pricing options are lining up nicely- anyone with $5 to spare should be able to get any print they want, all the way up to a higher price for 20” x 30” mounted (or mounted and professionally framed!) prints. Considering the print house these go through, I have zero doubts that the quality will be fantastic, and even my most expensive option should be reasonably priced for the size/quality.

Full info coming by the end of the weekend.

It’ll weigh a couple pounds

My first publicly available photo book, Cartography I-III, is on its way to the printers. Total size is around 860MB. The next couple nights will be spent figuring out what I want to do for art prints as well, and when it’s all ready I’ll post more about them here.

It looks like whether I wanted it to be or not, the book is going to end up expensively priced. The high price is the downside of going hardcover, choosing better paper than default, and having something in the range of 70 pages of full-color photography.

Photograph prints will be available for every image in the book, and will have not only very reasonably priced options but truly expensive ones as well. Everyone, if they wish, should be able to at least get something for $5 is my thinking. Or you could buy the book, take an X-Acto knife to the spine and you’ve technically got every print at a heck of a bargain.

All items, no matter what their prices (and my lack of profit on any of them), will be pretty strictly limited in edition. This will motivate me to move forward and produce new work.

Proof that I wasn’t foolin’ in that last post. I’m maybe 1/3 of the way through edits. It’s going to be a beautiful little monster of a book.

This is totally true

Bit by bit I’m putting together a three-volume photo book series on shopping carts. I plan to have it for sale as a physical product, but don’t actually expect (or wish) to sell any copies so they will be priced far above a sensible amount. Other series will also be turned into books at some point.

What’s the name of the series going to be? Cartography
