“I am writing to thank you for your kind e-card service at this awful time. As I do now wish to take too much advantage of your service - I have sent 5 so far for Easter - please let me know if there is a limit of use, and the price of the cards if I exceed the limit. I must say they have all been well received and cheered the recipients considerably at what is otherwise a dismal time. Thank you again. Keep Safe and Well”

“I posted a comment about how I was evacuated to Ystalyfera at the beginning of World War 11 (late 1930 ) and stayed with my aunt and uncle at Bryncelyn. Low and behold I have received a reply from the son of my long lost cousin, Conway Rees! They now live in Chicago USA and through the Francis Frith website we are now in contact after 60 years. I can't believe it and am eternally grateful for this opportunity”

“I have just been contacted by a Heather Shepherd who recognised my surname as it turned out her grandmother and I were neighbours for the first 20 years of my life. I write to say thank you to 'Francis Frith' for enabling my memories to become so active and I recommend to any one searching for friends/relatives do not give up as Francis Frith makes it all possible. My impending visit to UK in December 2011 has suddenly become even better than I was expecting. The above has just been posted and since I realise that you may not read every posting I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your colleagues for the most wonderful site on the Internet.”

“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”

“Just had a preliminary look at your new publication online and will return to it when time permits, but just to congratulate everyone involved in the production of this fascinating history. What a family they were”

“Good afternoon. I have just received the above orders and am absolutely delighted with them. The quality is outstanding and I shall be in touch after Christmas to order more prints which evoke memories of childhood”

“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”

“Hi there, Thank you for the beautiful Burleigh print from the 1950s which arrived safely this morning. It is for my husband for his birthday in a couple of weeks and I think he will love it. I was really lucky in that the view this photo looks out on is actually our house!! Interesting to see how much it has changed over the years! Many thanks for an excellent service. I will recommend you to my family and friend”

“Hi Thank you so much for the framed map of our 'home', it is lovely to be able to match the places in the area to those shown on our house deeds, we have these since the land was a field, just as shown in the map! I only ordered the map by via the website on Sunday evening, and it arrived Thursday morning, a lovely surprise - thank you. We are now going to pick out pictures for a jigsaw for my parents of the places they have lived in for the last 50 years! Kind Regards Jane”

“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”

“I must apologize for the lateness of response but have only just finished reading said book which I found most informative. The quality of the photographs seems better than previous and the layout of the pages led seamlessly from one to another. 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”

Above and Beyond!
“The title may sound a bit grand these days but it was so thoroughly deserved, the help, advice and continual patients of the staff concerned was a breath of fresh air and this Company was a joy to deal with, the five-star rating is well deserved and could have been even higher”

“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”
Added 16th March 2011
“Recently I received my copy of "I Remember When" (I had a friend send it to me) I am extremely satisfied with the quality of this book. I am also grateful to you for choosing some of my own contributions to include in this fine coffeetable book
I firmly believe that the Francis Frith Collection is a wonderful way for us to memorialise our living experiences for others to rerad.
Again Thank You for these opportunities”

“The photo now looks very nice framed and hanging in my hallway. It arrived well protected and undamaged.
If there is a criticism it was a tad pricey but the quality is good. Overall a good experience”
