EYAM YOUTH HOSTEL Derbyshire Postcard

Notes on Condition/Scanning

I use a standard low resolution scanner

(for speed and to discourage copying of these images).

Any pinkish tinting is common in scanners and does

not show on the image. Similarly, screening lines and moire patterns

can be ignored. Usually all postcards offered will have some wear

or bumping to corners, where they are at the most vulnerable. Generally,

black&white/RP or older postcards inevitably have been handled excessively where they

are very popular or sought after. All postcards here show genuine scans without

modification, in order that you can reasonbly and reliably judge the quality.

Where they significantly differ I will try to point this out. However, you

should check the photoscans and my opinions for yourself, as both value and condition

will be of importance to you when making a decision.

I offer guides to dates where stamped, (franked backs clearly state the year).

Postally unused are often the most difficult to judge and I generally comment

on the period of the photo (subjective) and not the age of the postcard, where no other

information is available.

 I never knowingly pass off something as old, when

clearly it is not. Neither do I sell scanned images that are not postcards.

Descriptions are always accurate to the best of my knowledge. If in doubt

Email for any further information before purchasing, look at my Feedback and judge for youself.

Very few are standard messages from buyers and they tend to remark on the accuracy of my descriptions,
