"All the Fairies in the Land" M. Tarrant, 1915 Poster

Why RetroPossible Vintage Prints Are Better: ~ The majority of vintage reprints currently available online are merely copies of previously printed images. ~ A reprint thus made will exhibit all the flaws introduced by the original printing process, such as half-tone dots, moire patterns, banding and poorly registered (aligned) colours. ~ Such quickly made reprints will also reproduce any spots, dust, smudges, stains and other damage that exists on the page. ~ Without correction, these flaws become part of the final print, and are magnified as the print size increases.. ~ Every RetroPossible reprint has been meticulously corrected by hand, using a process so thorough that it the results are copyrighted. (Not to be confused with the image itself, which remains in the public domain.) ~ This process typically requires an hour or more of expert manipulation per print, and ensures that each image can be enjoyed without distraction, which is what the artist intended.

Choosing a Size: ~ Although Zazzle presents a variety of sizes in which to order this print, some might not be suitable. ~ Ordering a print larger than the suggested maximum size may cause some loss of quality, especially when viewed close up. ~ No print's aspect ratio (width compared to height) will match that of all the all of the sizes offered. ~ Select a size from the 'Size' drop-down menu to see how how the print will look in that size. A Note About Matted Images : ~ We have added a coloured mat to the printed design of some of our images. ~ This is not the separate layer of matting that is offered in the Framing options; it is part of the print. (Our printed-on mats create a beautiful effect with optional add-on mats, however.) ~ Our printed-on mat saves you the expense of matting your print. Just frame and hang! ~ A printed-on mat also permits choosing a print size with a different aspect ratio (see above) without cropping the image itself. ~ Some pre-matted images are also available without the mat- a better choice if custom matting is desired or for printing clothing, mugs, etc. ~ Be sure to browse the RetroPossible categories for matted and unmatted versions of any image in our store. About the Illustrator: ~ Margaret Winifred Tarrant 1888-1959) was a prolific and popular English illustrator, best known for her the work she produced for various fairy tale and children's books.
