I know that some people use a stamp on the back of their final prints or matt boards, both to verify that it's a original print and to pass along information like the shooting date, series number, etc.
What info do you put on your print stamp?

The stamp on my fibre print reads:

or for colour/digital prints

Since when is "right" plural?

What is a :moral right". If I have no morals you have no rights.
Moral Rights in a work are similar to but not the same as copyright. Most major jurisdictions apart from the US recognise and protect these under copyright law.
even if copyright is assigned in a work to a third party, moral rights are usually not.
They protect, for example, the right of the creator to be assoctiated with their work. Another example would be they protect the integrity of the work. Just two examples

Here's a question or three for Eric:
What size stamp are you using? Where can the ink be purchased? Is it archival?
Thanks.
