    I see lots of questions about the PES but very few answers. I'd like to learn more about them and the artists.

    I have a Paris Etching Society etching... WItht he SLZ stamp and the number 117 on the left hand side. It is a picture of a country road with a puddle, trees in the foreground, and then a cottage on the left, and what appears to be a church on the right side of the road. The back is stamped "made in France" and On the front, near the SLZ and 117... something that looks like a name is penciled in. It looks like it may say ________d'aimiar... but I am not sure. Does anyone know what this is?

    In response to the Paris etching society print questions. Check out the web site Darvill's Rare Prints. I emailed him a picture of mine and he told me it is call an etchtone. He was very informative and told me he has some to sell. I am sure he can help you also. His phone # is 360-376-2351. Good luck

    Here's my usual C&P on this subject:

    The response from scriptor-ga is very insightful.

    Basically PES was set up by Sidney Z. Lucas, hence the SZL mark. He owned a printshop in New York in the years 1940 to 1960 where He
    produced a large number of prints after old etchings.
    Generally, prints by Mr. Lucas seem not to reach very high prices.
    At the end of the day they look nice, but that's about it.
    Most of what is talked about them is from people "boiler rooming" the price on the supposed French history.

    I hope this helps.
