    This is the first time I’ve bought from the seller and I am very well pleased! The product delivered was beautiful was as described and of top quality. The packaging was well thawed out and protected the item. Seller even included an extra bonus item! I would definitely buy from the seller again I have no problem recommending them to others.

    100% pleased. Shipped promptly w/ nice protective packaging & was just as described. The photo will make a great addition to the "Bo Brown Memorial Boys Coming of Age Collection" which I'm in the process of building for & donating to to the Sterne Library & Archives, University of Alabama in Birmingham. (Collection now numbers approximately 40,000 vintage & vernacular photos [see photo below which only shows part of the photo collection], 2000 books & 500 movies). Thanks!

    This seller took extra effort to send this to me in a way that worked best for me. I asked for a specific form of shipping, he replied quickly and said no problem, and the next day it was in my mail box! I'm incredibly grateful and pleased.
