Images with a wide aspect ratio (e.g. 116, postcard) will require cropping off the ends of the image. Unfortunately we cannot change this but suggest as an option to order a larger 8&#215;12 print to minimize the crop or order a smaller 4&#215;8 print and crop out the top and\/or bottom (which often is a benign sky or foreground). When you click on &#8220;Buy Photo,&#8221; select Paper Prints and a paper size menu, you will color bars appear on top and bottom, or the sides of the image. These indicate part of image that will be cropped off the paper. After you select the exact size of paper, you can adjust the area to print (see below) by moving the Printing Area Mask. Also, the printing service is not able to print metadata on the photographic prints. We strongly recommend that if you wish to retain this information, you copy it yourself when you receive your order. The same is true for digital downloads. <strong>A monogram will be located in the lower right-hand corner of all prints and downloads.

This is controlled by the page from which you conduct the search. The search bar is located at the upper righthand corner of the page. Examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To search globally across all collections, perform the search from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakestatesarchive.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">main archive page<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To search only within a specific collection, start at that collection&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakestatesarchive.org\/FR-Ritzman-Collection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">home page<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To search only within a gallery, start at that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakestatesarchive.org\/FR-Ritzman-Collection\/CNW-Steam-Locomotives\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gallery<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.4\">See individual collection descriptions for details on the scope of metadata for the individual collections. Examples of keywords would be <a href=\"https:\/\/lsrha.org\/?page_id=456\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"456\">railroad initials<\/a> (e.g. C&amp;NW, CMStP&amp;P) or subject matter (e.g. depot, roundhouse, coal chute, water tank, wigwag, signal, boxcar, steam, action, passenger). For an index of keywords used, <a href=\"https:\/\/lsrha.org\/?page_id=454\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here<\/a>. Searches may even be made for specific dates (years), locations (city or state), and film formats&#8211;any word that is contained in the image filename. Metadata keyword searches can be refined by adding more than one keyword. For example, to search for every water tank on the C&amp;NW in Wisconsin, you would enter &#8220;C&amp;NW water tank WI&#8221; in the search bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">DUPLICATION FEES FOR PERSONAL PRIVATE USE<\/p>\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.4;\">Prints ordered on-line:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>4&#215;8: $9.25<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5&#215;7: $8.75<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>8&#215;10: $10.00<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>8&#215;12: $11.50<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>8.5 x 11: $12.00<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\">Downloads ordered on-line:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 Mpix: $6.00<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4 Mpix: $10.00<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lsrha.org\/?page_id=1339\">PUBLICATION GUIDELINES FOR AUTHORS AND EDITORS<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lsrha.org\/?page_id=1104\">VIEW THE COLLECTIONS<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"font-size:15px\">revised 2\/24<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to Lake States\u2019 On-Line Photo Archive.
