Don't Let the Sun Damage Your Photos!
 My mom had this photo of me in a ready-made desk frame for many years. A few years ago I rescued it and put it in an acid-free album to stop its detoriation. Last month I had it restored. Luckily I caught it before it was too late. This month we are offering two fantastic specials on our Tru Vue 99% UV protective glass, both Conservation Clear, and Museum Glass. You'll find a link to your coupon below.

 New for Summer:
Ready-
Made Frames in
Nielsen Vivids!
Our Nielsen sales rep brought in these eye-popping ready made frames and we just had to try them. We are starting with one size, 8 x 10, to fit most small photos. If you like them we'll add more sizes. They are made from Nielsen's popular line of Vivids metal moulding. We stock more Vivids colors in length for custom sized framing projects. They're great for kid's and teen rooms and will light up a kitchen. We recently used Vivids frames for a corridor in a San Francisco office. They are really fun!

 New - Paul Lanquist Prints
Paul A. Lanquist is a well-known Northwest artist who has worked as a commercial illustrator for over 20 years. Paul's work depicts the style of illustrators from the 20's, 30's, and 40's. He combines this nostalgic look at the past with the natural beauty of the Northwest. Paul's retro-style posters fit in well with Arts and Crafts, Victorian, and contemporary homes in the Bay Area and throughout the country.
We have framed each image with hand wrapped fabric mats and special Wizard mat cuts. We invite you to come in soon to see our beautiful work on these prints!
See our new Paul Lanquist Page for more framed images...

We just had a call from Yoshiko Yamamoto to tell us that Oranges is now out of print. She saved two copies for us.
One is framed in our gallery, and one is unframed. This last copy will be sold framed only, with a frame of your choice. If you have had you eye on this print, now is the time to buy one.
