“thank you so much. I placed this order as a fathers day present and after having read the timescales involved, fully expected the order to miss the fathers day deadline of sunday 18th June and realised this was my fault for leaving it to the last minute and was perfectly happy to explain to my father in law that his present would be a few days late. how happy was I when I rang him to explain this, when he told me that he had a parcel waiting on his doorstep for him when he returned from his holiday on the thursday!! I was amazed that you managed to get this wonderful present made and delivered within a matter of days and it was actually 3 days early for fathers day. thank you so much for your efforts and speediness.
a very grateful customer who will definitely recommend your services to friends and famil”

“I recently purchased your East London Photographic Memories and I would like to say what an excellent read it is - full of old photos and such. I will probably be buying some of your other books in the future”

Memories of the Lincoln we knew and left behind
“We always love the Francis Frith calendar of the Lincoln we remember from 50 years ago, when we left. Ordered one day, with our comments added as requested, and posted the next day. That is a very efficient service as per normal”

“Dear Francis Frith, I am 61 years old and for some years have been unable to locate a grave in North Wales based on a single photo taken in the 30s by my father (now deceased). Thanks to your Photo Gallery I found a cemetery that I didn't know existed, emailed them, and have located that grave. Your gallery is of inestimable value as a research tool. Thank you so much. Yours sincerely, John Hamilton-Smit”

“I was very excited to see this on your website to buy. My parents owned the village shop in the picture from the late 1950's (not sure what date) until 1965 when I was just under 2 years old. They sold your postcards in their shop and I still have some tucked away somewhere. They obviously were very involved in village life although both are now deceased. They used to talk very fondly about their time in Wetheral and the village characters. Thank you for making my Christmas with being able to purchase this item”

“This book is a Christmas present from my grandchildren and has given me so much pleasure to read during my recent illness. Many of my relatives are still scattered around Devon…. Barnstaple is a particular favourite of mine, so again many sincere thanks for the pleasure and memories it has given me”

Mug with a map!
“I ordered a mug with a 19th century map to be printed on it. I'm so pleased with the result! Great quality print, really clear. It's a gift for my Aussie cousin, we are both into family history and the map actually shows the tiny village where our ancestors lived. I would definitely recommend this service. Delivery was good and I was kept informed. Thank you Francis Frith”

“I ordered a book with a personalised touch (from my youngest kids to their grandma). Having the option to personalise is one of the reasons I bought it. It was promptly delivered, no fuss, no delays. An absolutely beautiful pictorial historical account of my Mum's home town, which I am sure she will be delighted with.
Thank you very much Francis Frith”

“I would like to say that I have only just discovered your website, and think it is absolutely wonderful. I have recommended it to several of my friends. I found out some more wonders of your site, that you can send messages to other people who have left messages. I was delighted to send a message to a girl who lived in Shere at the same time as I did 60+ years ago, and who is now in Australia. I cannot praise your site highly enough. Do keep up the good work”
