An artist's proof is a term from creating lithographs, screen prints, or other copies of a work for resale. The artist's proof may be an in-progress design (see link), but generally today it's the first one off the press, and it is given to the artist to demonstrate the quality of the work, which the artist then decides if they're going to proceed with the print run. A messed up one would probably be worth more than a regular one, because the messed up one looks different... of course, assuming you can authenticate it. If you think you have a Rembrandt "artists proof" for example, you probably have a copy of one of his in-progress designs. An original would be extremely hard to authenticate, and as such, an authentic one with full papers back to Rembrandt himself (extremely rare) would be worth a TON of money.
