Vaughan made eight lithographs; almost all are signed but none are
numbered, and the editions are unknown. Added to this, there is no
evidence as to who the printers were -
but none of this is hardly surprising!
During the immediate post-war years, printmaking facilities in
London and the UK in general did not exist in the way we know
today. Paris led the way for fine art printing from the late 19th
century and printers like Atelier Mourlot began as commercial
workshops printing labels and posters in the mid-19th century.
