Many of our images are scanned from our archive of slides which date back to the late 1800's early 1900's. For this reason some images may appear a little inferior in quality, however as many of these images are very rare vintage photography we feel it would be a shame not to offer them. We have have over 1.5 million of these slides, it is a long time consuming task to clean each slide, scan it, catalogue and keyword each file. If you require a scanned image of higher quality we are more than happy to rescan that image for you and will provide a quotation prior commencing any orders. As you can see it is going to take us some time to have all these images online, we will constantly add to our online image database everyday.
