PRINTS
The Society has acquired a number of prints from the Illustrated Times of 1855 and The Illustrated London News of 1854/5/6/7. They have yellowed to some degree, but the photocopies are of reasonable quality, some good enough for colouring and framing. Their size varies and the following list endeavours to indicate nearest approximate size to A4 and A3. They are available for 25 pence per A4 copy and 50 pence per A3 copy. However, it must be pointed out, that copies larger than A4 will have to be folded or will need A3 envelopes which cost 30 pence each. Please take this into account when ordering. Alternatively, A3 prints can be reduced to A4 when copying but of course, some detail will be lost.

A similar offer to the one made for MAPS can be made for PRINTS. Over 300 prints are available in collections of some members who are willing to allow copies to be made and sold by the Society for basic printing cost and postage only. Typical of items available are tinted copies of Simpson Lithographs, uniforms, monuments, ILN and Illustrated Times journals, personalities, places, events.
As with maps there are far too many prints to itemise in this price list, so, we suggest you explain your needs to the Publicity Officer as precisely as possible and we will endeavour to respond with details of how we can help, print size, price and postage.
