Futera Unique 2014 - Production Set
Futera
200 cards

'1 OF 1' PRODUCTION SETS WITH CERTIFICATE CARD
LIMITED TO ONLY 1 OF EACH SET CREATED

A PRODUCTION SET = a Printing Plate + production element(s) + a Certificate provided together in pack.
Only 1 plate for each card has been released, so there is only one '1 of 1' plate for each card printed, and not 4. As a bonus, some plates are autographed, some Sets feature the card Front and Back, some have an accompanying 1 Colour card, Printer’s Proof or other elements taken from the production process. 
Production Sets are individually numbered and contain a unique code for use in Code for Collectors, FWF Online.com and eFutera.com.

PRODUCTION SETS - VALUE ENHANCER

Futera will be offering additional production elements to holders of some Production Sets (NB: additional items will be available for some Production Sets, not all).   These may be a Back plate, a Printer's Proof, a Single Colour Card (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) or other elements from the production stages in the creation of the finished card.  
These items will be published on the 'Code For Collectors' section of the Futera website and made available to the collector-holders of the associated Production Sets to request and add to their Set (thereby increasing the inherent value as a collectible). The 'Code for Collectors' data will then be updated to include information about the added items.  
These extra items will be available FREE of charge from Futera to the collector-holders of the original Production Sets, with only a nominal charge for postage & handling. Futera only release one plate for each card face, the remaining 3 colour plates are not released. Your Futera Plate Card and Production Sets are therefore true and rare '1 of 1' collectibles. This service will commence during July.
