About Acrylic Prints
Mounting Option #1
Mounting Option #2
Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print. Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.
The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!
All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).
The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.
There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.
Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts. The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall. When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done. The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1". All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print. Click here for mounting details.
Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back. There are no metal mounting posts at the corners. Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done. Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50" Click here for mounting details.

I am so pleased with the photograph. It captures what I saw during my visit to Sedona perfectly! I especially loved the ease in hanging this art.

I ordered 5 large pieces of local Bentonville, Arkansas acrylic art for a client from Gregory. His response time is good and the product is well made. But the art itself... stunning. I will definitely buy more from him again!!
Artist's Description
Three rangefinder cameras from the 1940s. On the left is a Super-Ikonta 531, 6x4.5cm German-made rangefinder with a Xenar lens. This was produced only in 1948, when Zeiss Ikon ran out of their Tessar lenses and so is quite rare.
In the centre (with the focus on the lens) is a British-made Ensign Commando, from about 1949. This was an excellent camera but never caught on with the public, apparently partly due to supply difficulties and partly because it was in direct competition with another of Ensign's cameras, so it is also quite rare. It shoots in 6x4.5 and 6x6 configurations, for either 12 or 16 shots from a roll of 120 film. The film gate is switched between configurations using internal flaps.
On the right is a Soviet Moskva 5 camera, a copy of the German Super-Ikonta C. It shoots in 6x9 format for eight frames on 120 size film but also has a mask that can convert it to the more economical 6x6cm format. These were mass produced and are quite common on the second-hand ma...

V, F, You just reminded me of my first camera the Kodak Vest Pocket folding bellows with a variable aperture and focus from 1928. It was My Moms, broken with the bellows off the track, so she gave it to me to play with. Took it apart, and fixed it when I was seven. My aunt, who traveled the National Parks taking photos of Tourists, living in a 10x Tent, developed film at night. Made prints and mailed them to the tourists... She taught me to develop my film, and make prints. Saved my money, bought an enlarger, and by 1942 was freelancing for three Boston Papers. Thanks for the Memories !

Thanks for that. I'm glad it brought back some happy memories. I don't have any Kodak cameras but there are a heap more European folders I plan to shoot portraits of (well, I did shoot them yesterday, actually, but it turned out that the flash synch on my Sekor 105 is out of kilter, so I ended up with a blank roll. I'll use the Pentacon Six today).
