A Note on Image Quality:
The quality of historic images are subject to the capabilities of the original photographer and the limitations of photo technology prevalent during the time-period in which it was taken. Some historic images are very sharp and clear, while others may be blurred, cloudy, or over/under exposed. Many historical images were originally produced on glass plate negatives, giving some a scratched, spotted or crackled appearance if the plate was damaged.
Please note that we do not attempt to fix, enhance or disturb the original image, as we feel these eccentricities add to it's historic charm. Thanks for taking this into consideration before making your purchase.
FAQ:
How do I know your image description is accurate?
We strive to make our photo descriptions as accurate as possible. Descriptions are taken directly from the U.S. Library of Congress or National Archives (where applicable). In many cases, these institutions hold the original photo and state exactly what the original photographer ascribed to the image. Therefore, we use these institutions as our standard of authority on all applicable image descriptions. We are not responsible for errors and we will not participate in disputes. Should you have a dispute, please contact the Library of Congress or National Archives directly.
Be sure to review the image carefully and be certain of your purchase BEFORE you bid, as no refunds will be issued on the basis of disputes in photo content. If you are in doubt as to the accuracy of the description - JUST DON'T BID. Thank you.
When can I expect my package?
Items are delivered via USPS First Class mail (2-5 business days) with no longer than one (1) day handling time. Your item should not be considered untimely unless it has not been delivered after one full week from your payment date. Please consider weekends and holidays when anticipating your package arrival date as well.
Is your transit packaging secure?
Great care will be taken to ensure that your item arrives in excellent condition. Prints are shipped flat on cardboard and sealed in a water-resistant envelope or, for posters or maps, a crush-resistant tube. We have shipped thousands of prints in this manner and found it to be very reliable. Because of this, we have every reason to believe our packaging methods are superior and can not be responsible for variables outside of our control (postal handlers and carriers, etc.). For maximum protection, shipping insurance is offered and recommended for an additional $2.00.
