Willitts Designs produced Ebony Visions at that time and their definition of Gallery and Artist Proofs is as follows: "Gallery Proofs are limited to 50 Sculptures, hand-numbered and signed by the artist. A Gallery Proof is a very limited, exclusive issue of a particular edition that has hand-painted color variations directed by Thomas Blackshear. Because of its unique color design this issue is not part of the original numbered edition Artist Proofs are limited to 50 sculptures, hand-numbered and signed by the artist (Jamboree Series pieces were initialed by Mr. Blackshear) . Artist Proofs are the first pieces produced of one design and are used to confirm accurate duplication of the artist's master. Artist Proofs are not included in the original numbered edition".
