"E.A." (Epreuve d'Artiste, the French term for artist's proof), "A.P." or "H.C." were originally conceived to mean a small part of a printed edition to be presented to the collaborators of the artwork or for the personal use of the artist. These were usually not more than 10% of the size of the regular edition. However, it's amazing how many prints we see with the annotation "A.P.", "E.A." and "H.C.". Certain prints have these notations on as many as a thousand prints.
