Leaflet explaining the Fine art trade guild stamp on limited edition prints.

The Fine Art Trade Guild is an organisation representing the fine art and framing industry.
B ased in London, the Guild operates primarily in the United Kingdom and Ireland, also in a smaller capacity in New Zealand.
The first fine art trade association or guild was the Printsellers' Association, founded in 1847.
The Fine Art Trade Guild was founded in 1910 and represents members as well as assuming the purpose of its predecessor in trying to "preserve the integrity of the limited edition print".
More recently Colin Ruffell[7] was the first artist to be elected as Master of the Guild in 2008, serving in this role for two years.
The Guild also acts as a regulatory body and has established ethics and operative standards for its members, as well as providing information for customers who buy art or framing services.
