Flatters & Garnett, Ltd., Manchester. SLIDES MADE TO ORDER. Our business in this department has always shown a steady growth. We have installed additional and improved apparatus, and are now able to deal with large quantities. The experience of many years enables us to secure the best results P DELIVERY.—During the busy winter months a clear week at least should be allowed, and customers should give the latest possible delivery date. Neverthe- less, we endeavour to oblige customers who cannot give so long a notice. Such expressions as “urgently required,” etc., are of little value. EMERGENCY ORDERS.—If Slides are required to be despatched within 24 hours of receipt, this can generally be managed by arrangement, an extra fee of 4d. per slide upwards being charged according to circumstances. Rush orders of this kind should be avoided where possible. All Slides are made the standard English size, 3£ x 3^ inches, unless we are expressly instructed otherwise on each order. All Slides are properly masked, spotted, and bound up with clear cover glass, and provided with a white label for naming. SCALE OE CHARGES. (a) From customers’ negatives (Films or Glass), by Contact.

NEGATIVES.—Negatives made by us in the process of producing Slides, &c.. remain our property. Customers may, however, purchase them, if ordered at the same time as the Slides* at an extra charge of 6d. each. Such negatives are stored under the names of the persons ordering—no copies being made except by their instructions. They are not kept longer than three years except by arrangement. In the case of photographs of objects, specimens, original drawings, etc., we are open to make mutual arrangements for reproducing them if likely to he of value to us. We are also open to purchase, or to make arrangements to use, suitable negatives of subjects of interest to naturalists and others. COPYRIGHT.—To prevent misunderstanding, we may state that practically all original drawings or photographs are copyright, whether so marked or not. It is necessary, therefore, to secure permission to have such works copied, and this should be done by the customer. Orders are executed on the understanding that such leave has been obtained. In any case the full responsibility remains with the person ordering the work to be done. WORK DONE AWAY FROM OUR STUDIOS. We are prepared to undertake photographic work away from our studios* to copy originals which cannot be removed readily, or where a large amount of work warrants it. in such cases a special quotation will be given. —5—
