Yep. You will often see different "editions" added if demand is greater than expected.
They might call them different names, and they may be on different media, but they are still just prints (typically either offset lithograph, serigraph/silkscreen, or giclée).
Some can be priced higher than others, depending on the total number in the particular edition/run, the media/substrate, and any other "enhancements" like being hand signed and/or embellished by the artist.
Obviously with Geisel (Seuss), the latter isn't possible.
Still, it can be good way to obtain/enjoy a piece you like without paying an arm/leg for an original work.
