Appel made numerous print portfolios using color lithography. Appel’s lithographs wonderfully capture the texture and color of his original paintings and mixed media drawings. Prints from Appel’s many portfolios are often sold individually, as each work has significant collector value. While Appel’s prints have been widely reproduced as poster prints, his hand signed and numbered prints are the most valuable. Appel’s lithographs can be found in auctions and galleries around the world.
