WAIALUA COURT HOUSE 1960's OAHU HAND PRINTED 8X10 INCH SILVER HALIDE PHOTOGRAPH

Description

This is a fair quality (the print is slightly darker-grayish) hand printed silver halide gelatin photograph (not a digital inkjet print) custom printed in a darkroom from  a copy negative, archivally developed in chemistry on Ilford 'Pearl' semi-matte surface black & white photographic paper, cropped, and mounted on an 8x10 inch backing board **which is part of the print that you can see here (see photo) with caption and photography information on the back of the Waialua Courthouse building in Haleiwa town on Kam hwy in the 1960's. In the old days there was a jail in the basement and also a traffic court upstairs if you got a ticket in Haleiwa or Waialua. It has been refurbished and is now owned by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs?
It would make a great birthday or holiday gift for someone who may have lived in the area or likes rural historic building images of Hawaii.
Our hand printed silver halide gelatin original and reproduction photos are very popular and affordable to local people and tourists visiting Hawaii, as well as people who have never visited Hawaii. In the near future real black and white silver halide photographic paper will cease to be available as manufacturers phase out production because of digital photography and we won't be printing these by hand in the darkroom forever.
The prints are the 'old style' traditional film based images printed using an enlarger from a negative on real photographic paper and archivally processed by hand, not by a machine. Prices are less than you would pay retail at a gallery or custom photo lab for a hand printed and mounted silver halide black and white print and production costs are lower than most folks so we want to offer affordable quality art for people who might not otherwise be able to afford it. Larger unmounted prints are also available, please inquire.

PLEASE ALSO NOTE
:
e-Bay's transfer process and the computer screen makes the photo look contrasty and slightly darker or lighter, depending on your monitor brightness and contrast settings. This photo is printed on non-glossy semi-matte 'pearl' surface paper and the photo offered has more gray tones, deep, richer blacks, less contrast, and has the unique look of a real silver halide gelatin print, which has a different tonal range and brightness than you may see on your individual computer screen. You may be able to see small imperfections on larger images as these are printed by hand 'as is' and are not retouched. It is printed on 8x10 inch paper from a 35 mm negative and margins may be slightly trimmed. **When it is attached to the single mat backing board you will be able to see the backing board around the borders of the print. It makes the print look like there is a thin margin around the edges of the photo which you can see here. Prints are permanently mounted to the acid free backing board using  archival photo adhesive and cannot easily be removed from the backing board without damaging the photo. An 11x14 inch frame (or larger) with a custom cut mat from a frame shop or art store is the suggested way to display this photo. If you want to use a larger frame and mat and you can't find an experienced framer who knows how to do it, contact us and we can provide information explaining how it can be done. This is recommended for best visual and artistic impact in displaying this photo, although many people are happy using a standard 8x10" frame and displaying the image as is. We want to make sure you know exactly what you are buying so we hope our thorough description of these photos will answer all your questions before you purchase
