I remember the first time I went with my girlfriend to the print room at the Photographers' Gallery here in London flipping through albums of original prints by HCB that we could have had for a couple of hundred pounds each. Of course back then we didn't have anything remotely like £200-.
2 or 3 years ago I was in the Paris Magnum print room and a young couple were flipping through an album of original prints by HCB. When they heard they were from about 2000 euros they blanched in exactly the same way we did 30 years previously.
