No other editions or states of these etchings other than the 1973 edition printed at Triad Graphics in a limited edition of 25 numbered impressions. There are no signed or unnumbered impressions other than 10 publishers proofs which are so marked. The edition including the publishers proofs was done on Murillo paper using brown ink. There are a total of 50 trial proofs of various etchings done in black or brown ink and are marked as such. Each etching is impressed with the blind stamp of the Gallery Easel ( from the Certificate of the 1973 edition). Card from Lorson's Books & the certificate of the 1973 edition are laid-in. Case is somewhat faded on spine.

According to this leaf, DePol's "fees are modest in view of the Great Care and Precision exersized and is work is ready, more often than not, when promised" and John Anderson's fees for his presswork "are equally modest, his deliveries are not quite so prompt." Illustrated with a wood engraving by DePol depicting an old-fashioned safe nearly, but not quite beaten into submission by a criminal, who is seated on a stool next to the safe, taking a lunch break.
