“Got you from the Helpful Book Company and just wanted to say what a very nice website you have, I sent a couple of epostcards already and found it was easy to do, no doubt I will succumb to some paid-for items in due course!!! We live in France so this site could be useful ( and interesting) for presents................ Best wishes, Audre”

“To all at Francis Frith.I have just recieved my copy of 'I Remember When' which includes my entry about the Witch from my family's past (page 197, bottom right hand side).
As a hopeful as yet unpublished writer, it was fantastic to see my name in print! To know that other readers will see my own name has given me an enormous kick.
Also, the book itself is prooving to be a good read that I can pick up and put down at any time and I'll always find facinating stories, some of which have already brought back memories of my own.
My Dad is in hospital at the moment, so I'll be taking the book with me on my next visit to show him. He will be impressed with it too!
Thanks once again, all at Francis Frith for choosing to include my memory. I'll be using your site again to order very soon, and I'll sing your prais es to everyone I work with (whether they are interested or not)!
Best wishes.

“I just wanted to say thank you very much for the very prompt delivery of the items I ordered for my father's 90th. The excellent telephone service and the safe delivery of the items yesterday, has meant that I don't need to wait in panic on the day in fear of missing the post. The items are perfect and I am sure I will be ordering again in the future”

“I am so thrilled with the framed photo print that I have just received from you. Choosing and ordering the print was simple and straightforward, and the quality of the reproduction was first class. I ordered a 1948 print of Ramsgate market place - and I think my mother is in the photo”

“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”

“Thank you for the excellent service on my order for two pictures, the product, delivery and packaging were superb. Our friends are amazed that pictures like these existed and have difficulty in believing how much our home area has changed and also how much is still the same! A cousin living in Leicestershire was in tears to see a picture of her grandmother's house she played in as a child. Thank You”

“Please accept my heartfelt thanks for dealing so efficiently with my pre-Christmas order and its complications. The prints arrived safely in good time and have proved to be excellent presents. Two octogenarian parents are normally very difficult to buy for at Christmas, but they are highly appreciative of the quality of the picturs and find the subject matter evocative of their childhood days. Thank you again”

“I am just writing to thank you for a wonderful service. I received my poster size prints yesterday and I am delighted with them. The service I have received has been first class. The quality of the prints is second to none. I am extremely happy with them.
In this day and age people just don't take the time to say thankyou and let other people know that they appreciate the service they have been given, hence this email.
Once again a very BIG THANK YOU to all”

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”

“I have finally received my eagerly awaited copy of the book "I Remember When...". I was curious as to which story your company had published in the book. I was overwhelmed and astonished to see that you have published four of my stories, one of which is on Page 69. This entailed the story of the Majestic Cinema in Mitcham and my subsequent dream of going to the South Pacific. The pictures attached are in fact one of the islands I lived on for 14 years with my husband and two daughters - the youngest was born there and the eldest was 16 months when we arrived. We were there when Papua New Guinea became an Independent Nation and I have many experiences and memories of the island of New Britain - of course I have written these down - but are only for private publication. We left when my husband was murdered, but that is another story.
I continue to live in the Pacific and at the moment I am in Far North Queensland, Australia.
I will continue to write on your site on the different places I visited during my young years. I enjoy reading the book, it is very well presented, and learning of more experiences of the other writers in the book.
Thank you again for publishing my stories and I look forward to seeing another book published next year, whether it has any of my stories in it or not.
I would be grateful if you can forward my thanks to John M Buck”
