Limited Edition Postcards at Medalta Potteries

For the last couple years, particularly since the release of my documentary, I'd had a few discussions with Medalta Potteries, the National Historic Site and museum in Medicine Hat, Alberta, about releasing a collection of limited edition postcards inspired by the photo essays I'd shot around the clay district as part of my Around the Hat series.

Despite us both wanting to make it happen, it essentially took a year when everything else slowed down for us to finally find the time to pull it all together. The result is this brand new, 10 piece collection of mini art print postcards, designed and photographed by Editing Luke, and available exclusively through Medalta in the Historic Clay District.

These 4x6" premium postcards are Medalta and Editing Luke branded, and professionally printed on a thick cardstock with a soft matte laminate on the image side. The idea was to produce something brand new that felt like a vintage throwback. A uniquely local postcard that could be mailed, or simply a small souvenir print that could be collected or framed.

I'm especially proud to see how this collaboration came together, particularly because these postcards encapsulate so many different projects I've produced around the clay district over the years. Be sure to pick up a few of these as you exit through the gift shop. Not only do they look great - they're also the most affordable Editing Luke prints I've ever released lol.

16 Doors: A 3-Part Collection of Prints

One year ago I joked that the boredom of lockdown had lead me to start exploring locally again and subsequently photographing doors / entryways in my hometown of Medicine Hat, Alberta. Turns out May 2020 was a little soon to be getting bored. 

What followed was an entirely new "Hometown Series" and as a spinoff of that, "16 Doors". Today I've released the third and final print from that series - "16 Doors: Part 3", effectively completing a trilogy of prints featuring 48 unique doorways from around my hometown.

Each print in this collection is 8x10" and comes with your choice of a white or black frame (including a white matte) that measures 13x17". Each print is also hand-signed and stamped on the reverse. Availability is limited. Please contact for current details.

Below you will find each of the 3 prints and the specific locations featured in each.
