Welcome to the wonderful world of Illustration. Our web site is now 30 months young and my have we heard from thousands of:

• Collectors
• Dealers
• Galleries
• Illustrators
• Descendants of Illustrators
• People who found old illustrations in their attics and basements

Last year (2001), we received over 100,000 hits and this year our weekly totals are up 25%. We've received compliments and inquiries from every state in the union and also England, Italy, and China. We've made many sales, but more importantly, our collection has grown because of all the nice people who have contacted us with their old keepsakes. So keep those E-mails coming. We want to buy illustrations. Please keep in mind, we do not deal in prints nor can we help in evaluating them.

One of the true joys of our website experience has been talking to the many relatives of illustrators who are no longer with us. Children, grandchildren; successors who were used as models in illustrations we own have told us fascinating stories of their precedents.

Thanks for listening and thanks for your participation in helping us bring this magnificent art form to a new generation of Americans.
