We introduce the notion of a `pure` Abstract Elementary Class to block trivial counterexamples. We study classes of models of bipartite graphs and show: Main Theorem (cf. Theorem 3.5.2 and Corollary 3.5.6): If $(lambda_i : i le alpha<aleph_1)$ is a strictly increasing sequence of characterizable cardinals (Definition 2.1) whose models satisfy JEP$(<lambda_0)$, there is an $L_{omega_1,omega}$ -sentence $psi$ whose models form a pure AEC and (1) The models of $psi$ satisfy JEP$(<lambda_0)$, while JEP fails for all larger cardinals and AP fails in all infinite cardinals. (2) There exist $2^{lambda_i^+}$ non-isomorphic maximal models of $psi$ in $lambda_i^+$, for all $i le alpha$, but no maximal models in any other cardinality; and (3) $psi$ has arbitrarily large models. In particular this shows the Hanf number for JEP and the Hanf number for maximality for pure AEC with Lowenheim number $aleph_0$ are at least $beth_{omega_1}$. We show that although AP$(kappa)$ for each $kappa$ implies the full amalgamation property, JEP$(kappa)$ for each kappa does not imply the full joint embedding property. We show the main combinatorial device of this paper cannot be used to extend the main theorem to a complete sentence.
