Part 2.
The Prints...
FIFTY+
master print images are included
in a folder for your personal use and
each has been restored and enhanced for
making prints using standard A4 photo
capable printers - or larger format too
for several of the bigger, high
resolution ones also included!
Note
these are uniquely restored versions and
may not be copied for resale or for
inclusion in image compilations by other
dealers.
Here
are just a few (much reduced in size)
examples....
|
Several images are provided
in larger format for making
big prints. For example at a
high resolution of 300 dpi
this print still comes out
at 13 inches on its longest
side! |
Note
to buyers.
Although the underlying material is
mostly in the Public Domain due to its age or distribution
rights (some material is also exclusive to us) additional editing of damaged material, or other improvements, have been carried out
making this varied set a unique offering available
only from Collectaprint in this format.
It is provided at a
particularly low cost, mainly to cover materials
plus
fees and various associated overheads.
Adobe Reader Format
The texts are presented in a convenient Adobe Reader
form (.pdf files) suitable for all computer systems
and which allows each title to be read individually
on a computer screen and at your leisure. This format also allows for all the essential illustrations to be shown in their full size, in-situ,
as opposed to the text-only 'e-books'
sometimes offered. Adobe reader itself
is completely free to download from the Adobe web
site, although it usually comes pre-installed
anyway as
standard on most computers.
