Catalogue, Downloads and Postage

Catalogues

Our Full Catalogue can be downloaded from here: PDF Catalogue

Please note any supplements or latest catalogue superseeds any product and postage pricing stated in the previous printed catalogues.

There are no price differences between ordering from us by post with a cheque or online using a card through PayPal, although better rates than you will find our products on third-party sites. Paying by cheque will take longer to send out products ordered due to the clearing time, and posting of cheque to us. All online sales are dealt with externally by PayPal, the most known merchant service where we have no control of your card payments or see your card details.

All downloads we offer from our site are only available as a PDF file, where we are working on offering both spreadsheet listings and image thumbnails of our Picture Library.


Postage

Our UK Postage rates change as does Royal Mail, while the majority of our packages now go through Yodel. We played catch up with Royal Mail for most smaller, lightweight items, and have come to am point in the priceing and compensation, that Yodel is used for the majority of our sales. Some specific items have a set Postage fee regardless of what value of spend with us, some books we obtain much smaller trade rates from some self-publishers therefore when these are a Hardback book for example we just have to add a postage fee towards the actual cost incurred.

Postage charge on orders up to £19.50 = £1.95
Postage charge on orders up to £25.00 = £2.95
Postage on orders over £25.00 are included. (With some exceptions)
We use Royal Mail for Large Letter under 100g
Most books sales we use Yodel which is tracked all the way.
The determined rate is at the time of purchase.

Sales of photographs are dealt with totally separate to our book, badge and general stock.

While our best prices are offered here online or through the catalogue (for those not connected to the internet, and rely on a postal service), buyers can browse our products at other places through third-party platforms, where prices have to vary to compensate for the added fees incurred.

Eco Green creditials and our packaging

With growing interest by our customers of the carbon footprint of products and services, we have over the years changed to environmentally friendly packaging as its become available as an alternative, by buying the recyclable cardboard bookmailers, reusing bubblewrap from deliveries to us, and biodegradable cello bags for our greetings cards. Using PLA (polylactic acid) produced by using fermented plant starch which still helps protect our greeting cards from British weather when attending outside events.
All our products are, to our knowledge also wholely sourced and produced in the Great Britain, as our suppliers have offered a better range of eco friendly packagaing to support our business.

Our own catalogue is printed in house on paper from sustainably managed forests sent with customer orders, never unsolicted.

Of book collections we have purchsed over the years has saved them from being just recycled or to landfill so they go to new readers who give them another good home.

  • Our paper used is certificated www.pefc.co.uk
  • Bookmailers use fully recyclable material.
  • Cello bags are biodegradable PLA.
  • We never buy any new bubblewrap, its all reused material.
  • Some of our electricity in use is sourced from our own solar panels.

Photographic Listings

Please note these listings are under development, each under review and update offline all the time as time permits, therefore you will encounter a number errors in places where corruption of files at some point created a mismatch for example of the operator or livery columns. The most critical column for requesting images is to use is the first ‘Order Number’ column.

The photographs listed are what have been printed over the years since 1993, some more times than others and is NOT a current stock list. Some prints are no longer available once sold out, in a few cases, some made as a Postcard, greeting card or from loaned material, hence a once off print run, where copyright in the latter remains with the photographer.

Download a form to request images for personal use. We no longer agree for any image from our library to be publlshed in any printed form, books or magazines, neither used on any social media platform, such as but not limited to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Flickr as these sites, images without our watermarks do get copied on and used without due credit which under ‘fair use’ has to credit the original source.

Scam sites

A word of warning, even at the best of times let alone during that period of lockdown and isolation through Covid-19 after March 2020, there are many new web sites with online stores opening up all the time, without security for your payments or data, so buyer beware.

You will not receive any goods, just lose you money if you try to buy from the websites. They will likely also steal your ID, bank or payment details. These sites are part of a new organized cyber crime wave, in additon to all those phishing emails we all get from time to time.

Be really very wary of these new fake websites, with new ones are popping up all the time, whatever they are offering you. Only go for established sites with a safe record and read its reviews.
One such phishing example has the site full of eBay items, scraped off its listings, some with lower prices, and some of our items too!
With a minimum free postage rate at £33 they will take your card details for as much as they can get. There are so many signs on a dodgy site, no real contact address, non-responsive email link, poor English grammer and so obvious with watermarked images copied from other places.
eBay however difficult to contact at the best of times, wasnt interested in the slightest, while a report to AuctionFraud probably wasnt going to do much either where we found another three other similar sites all doing the same one morning.
Buyer beware, if in doubt don’t, or at least use a credit and not a debit card for your protection.
