Click "Ask a question" to contact seller for more information. Tone options: Your print will have a sepia tone as shown unless you request grayscale in eBay messages on the same day that you pay. Sepia is the color of old photos today, caused by acid in the old paper. Many people prefer the warm sepia tones over cold black and white. Your sepia print will be on acid-free paper, but it will look old. Grayscale is the way modern black and white prints are made.Sepia (old look): Default tone
(see first picture)Grayscale (black and white): Request when you pay
(see second picture)Finish options: Your print will have a satin finish.Border: Your print will have a minimum border. This means that there will be some white edges (less than 1/4 inch wide) outside the image so that you can display the maximum amount of the image in typical devices that hide the edges of the print. Quality: We select the highest-quality images we can find and carefully restore and improve them. Old photos do not meet today’s high standards due to the limitations of the materials and methods available in those days, and due to aging and damage. But we improve them as much as we can while preserving an old look. Then we process them using modern archival methods so they can be affordable and last for many years.Packaging: We carefully roll each 20x24 print and ship it in a sturdy mailing tube.Shipping time: We make every effort to ship the next business day after we receive your payment. You must request substitutions in eBay on the same day that you pay, but your print will then take a day or two longer to ship because it must be custom made. If you purchase additional items to ship together, an extra day or two may also be required. The time required by the postal services to deliver your package depends on shipping method, Customs requirements, weather, holidays, and other factors beyond our control.
