Well,
rather a marketing gag than anything else, I think. I don't know if I
wold aim at that kind of collectors - "look, I've got the _proof_ that I
have a (nearly) unique picture of a naked woman!" - hehehe...
This won't make his photography better nor worse.
Mostly harmless, cutting innocent negs with a pair of scissors doesnt't
hurt as much as what one of the models has had done to her **pples...
Just my 2c,

I dunno about this. The Australian term is wanky. Photographer makes 5
prints from a negative. Then cuts the neg in quarters, and 4 of the
prints are sold, each with one of the quarters, to ensure that the print
is truly limited. Beside the fact that you still have to take his word
that he only makes 5 prints, I can't see how destroying the negative
makes the photos any better. Don't get me wrong, they aren't bad photos
- a bit bland, but nothing really wrong with them. At least he doesn't
photoshop the results :)
