“I am just writing to say how very please I was to receive my order this morning. 'Glorious Britian' (hardback) and Lincolnshire Living Memories (paperback) are to be given as a Christmas present to my stepfather and I'm sure he will be absolutely delighted. In particular the Glorious Britian book is superb - I just hope it won't look 'dog eared' by the time he receives it as it is very tempting to sit and read it myself before I hand it over! Excellent value for money, I will certainly recommend your website to friends and famil”

“I have just completed a jigsaw including four pictures of historic Repton (Derbyshire) and was delighted to find one actually showed a car my family owned, parked nr The Arch, Repton School. It was a Ford Squire, reg number clearly visible as 60 ARB-my father was the village policeman in the 50's, I remember being put in the back of the car with my sister, asleep in the middle of the night, to travel on family holidays to Cornwall! It was a lovely surprise..thankyo”

“I felt I must write and thank you for my recent orders. Firstly it was so kind to honour the vouchers which are probably now out of date and only asking for increased postage. Secondly, I am so pleased with the superb mounted photos. The quality is fantastic and amazing when you think how old some of the originals are. I am so very grateful.”

“Just a quick thank you for the lovely framed maps - even better than I imagined they would be. One for my son and daughter in law for their new home in Wales, and one for us in Northamptonshire. They are fascinating and show how much places have changed over the years. Again thank you so much - excellent service and prompt delivery”

“I must apologize for the lateness of response but have only just finished reading said book which I found most informative.

All in all a thoroughly good read which leads me to quote some previous author who said, “the book to read is not the one that thinks for you but the one that makes you think.” Your books certainly make you think”
