“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 would just like to thank you for your wonderful service with this recent order. I wanted to let you know that the goods arrived safely and that the recipients were absolutely delighted. You might not think that this is a very big thing until you see that the order was sent to Christchurch, New Zealand! I felt certain that this would be lost for ever after recent events but somehow it was delivered and was a welcome touch of comfort to them in the midst of so much devastation. Thank you again”

“I have just received my Frances Frith picture of Alnmouth ( Northumberland) and am delighted with the picture and presentation. It depicts a house I lived in around 1945, and I have a rather old coloured post card of the same view. Thank you for your quick response and safe delivery. Best wishes. Frances Wells”

“I have just received my picture of Dale Street, and wanted to tell you how pleased I am with it. I lived in Liverpool until I met my husband and came down South, 38 years ago and the picture brings back happy memories of working along there. It arrived in perfect condition too which was good, as the postman has a habit of folding everything in quarters and jamming it through the letterbox. Owing to your excellent wrapping he had to knock at the door. Thank you once again I'm thrilled with it.

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”

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 just wanted to thank you for the wonderful service on 2 calendars I ordered. I got them sent to my address in New Zealand but one was intended for my sister in USA. I didn't thnk they would arrive in time for me to send to her for Xmas, but thanks to your excellent serivce, they arrived in plenty of time to include one in her parcel. They were very well packaged, too.
Thanks again, she will be thrilled when her calendars arrives!”

“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”
