    These are fantastic, Gardener - many thanks for taking the time to share these with us.

    .

    As an aside - how does copyright work with these?

    There are a couple here (the 'Lovers walk at Bromley', for instance) that I'm sure you could make some good money from, cleaning them up a bit and reprinting as cards and, if at all possible (depending on print quality, obviously) upscaled small poster formats.

    I think that'd make a great project...

    • As in "surely some of these are fucking old and out of copyright?"detritus
    • yep - defo a slightly updated take on these could make wads of cash like 'keep calm' did (much as I hated that)... I reckon you could avoid copyright on thesefadein11
    • these are mostly pre 1925 so the 90+ years do whatever rule is in full effectGardener
    • seriously these could be sold as packs of 5 on a nice little webshop no probs - reprinted cheap as chips. do it! or I will.fadein11
    • Well then, you lucky bastard - you're sitting on a pile of potential! :) Go up to Bromley and scope out those art and housetat shops and see if you can sell somdetritus
