made from the original source: this is usually the original negative or slide that came from the photographers camera. In some cases where the origianl negative is lost a high resolution scan was made from the photo and then color corrected, retouched, and brightness adjusted, making the scan better looking than the old usually faded original. Some images are priced lower because they are grainy or slightly out of focus. A few of the old black and whites from the 30's and 40's were so badly scratched that only some repairs were made, but the men are so cute I wanted to preserve their images anyway. The large 19x13 and 10x8 photos are now printed by the newest epson printer with 1.5pl dot size (they claim the human eye can't see it it's so small) and with the epson archival matte paper the prints are supposed to last over 110 years. On special request you can substitute premium glossy which is supposed to last 100 years.
If you have any special requests please feel free to ask. There were several photos that I can no longer sell here, they are available on the other auction site under my same seller name.
If there is a photo you would like to see in a larger size, please ask, I'm working on getting them scanned and will work on requests first. Thanks!
