I have PA 4.0 and it worked on XP Pro. Now that I have purchased a Vista PC, I cannot get it to install. I have tried many ways including running the setup as administrator and the different compatibility modes in Vista. At one point, I got it to start the install but then it said that my hardware was not compatible which is not true. I went to: http://www.novadevelopment.com/Support/vista.aspx and it shows only Print Artist Gold 21 as well as the newest 22 as being compatible. I am not happy that Microsoft has stopped support for this and many other old software programs.

I actually have PA 4.0 running on Vista (and now Windows 7) but I did not actually install it the normal way. And there are issues with a few aspects, probably since Vista (or maybe even XP). You will need the Seirra/PrintArtist folders from an old install to make this work. I still had it from earlier installs on XP and Win 98. It will run without an actual install by just clicking on the printartist exe file in the main folder. You can also move a shortcut to the file to your start menu. It works just as it usually did, but ocassionally crashes, so save often if you get it working. You can also not change the print options from within the program, which is the issue I mentioned. If you want to change options, do it first from the regular printer properties page and then open the program. Find an older computer, install the program and any graphics you use with it, and then move all the folders to the program folder in the Vista or Windows 7 partition. This will NOT work on a 64 bit operating system, however. The program refuses to run, even in compatibility mode. (By the way, I also set the Printartist exe file to compatibility mode for Win 95. Might also work with Win 98 compatibility mode.)

Is a print from the Ullman Manufacturing Company copyright 1900 Antique Road Show material?

Generally, I would say no. It depends partly on who the artist is and how popular they are. Ullman Manufacturing made LOTS of prints, kind of like what you might find in Wal-Mart today (albeit the older ones are higher quality in many respects). I had an Ullman print from a fairly famous artist that was still working hard at the time the print was made (circa 1900), and I was lucky to get $40 for it, and that may be just because it had a nice period frame.
