  | Some free ones are available from the RAF. Max size 1024*768. RAF - History Gallery There is also a modern gallery with pictures sizes up to 1280*1024 but there are no period pictures, there are some of the BBMF which might interest you. Also have a look around the forums, there are a fair number of large size pictures around. Of course you will need to print these yourself on to photo (or similar) paper for best results.

 | If you are looking for quality, large size prints, you need photos that are at least 300dpi for a quality print. I would discourage anyone from framing an ink jet print. I had a few I did years ago and even under fluorescent lighting, they faded in about a year. It was as bad as a photo that had been exposed to direct sunlight for a much longer period. For framing and display, you need a real photographic print, archival quality is my preference, but most photo labs will give you a photo that will last substantially longer than an ink jet print. I have some posters on my web store that you can take a look at Posters : Van Gilder Aviation Photography Store (*disclaimer- It costs nothing to look and no one is under any obligation to buy anything there, but feel free if you want to.  )I also sell print of my photos at a reasonable cost as well. You can contact me through here or through my e-mail if you are looking for something specific.

| Looking for period photos (not warbirds) like this one I bought from Boeing in 20 x 30 format. Black and white or color I look for 11 x 14 or larger quality. It costs for quality photographic prints, not looking for scanner junk. Photo and frame (pro framery) for below came to $210 So looking for quality worth framing.
