Tom Cubbage Virtual Gallery: Purchace Prints Page

Thank you for your interest in purchasing a print or licensing an image from me. Generally all of the images are available unless they are marked with the code NFS (not for sale).

All prints will be signed in pencil and dated on the back. If requested the matted and framed prints will be signed, titled and numbered. That will be done on the front of the lower mat under the image.

All of the figure prints are in limited editions of twenty-five prints (except for Iris repographics which are in editions of 100. Some of the scenic decor prints are in limited editions of one hundred. At this time, all of the prints shown in this gallery are in the 1-10th of their respective editions.

My images are available in various sizes. They will be printed (with cropping on standard size print paper, or printed full-frame and the print paper will be cropped. The prints will be shipped matted or unmatted, framed or unframed, according to your preference. Some people like to do their own matting and framing; however I believe that the charges of my local framer are very reasonable. My prices are based upon the image size and type of print. The cost of matting and framing is a figured in as a surcharge. This will allow you to determine whether it is more economical for you to do the mounting and framing or let me have it done before the prints is shipped.

The color images are available as Iris (aka Giclee or archival inkjet) images or Ilfochrome (aka Cibachrome) prints, or as color prints if the original image is from a negative rather than a slide. A single Iris images is available as an Artist's Proof print. All of my color, and most of my black and white photographic printing is done at Photosmith in Tulsa, OK, by master printer Nancy Davies. Some b/w work is also done my master printer Patti Levey in Santa Fe. The Iris printing is done by Ampersand Grahics and can be obtained as either repographics or exhibition quality prints.

All printing is done on archival grade papers. Printing from color slides is done on Ilfochrome Classic paper. Prints from color negatives are done on either Kodak Supra or Kodak Ultra paper. Black and white prints are done on Ilford Multigrade IV Deluxe paper. Iris prints are usually done on Somerset Velvet, Radiant White 100% rag, acid free 280 gm paper. The Iris process is believed to produce archival quality images.

Prints from color negative may be obtained with either a matte or glossy surface. Ilfochrome prints may also be obtained with a special archival laminate surface finish that gives the print a matte finish look.

I utilize multilayer mats. First, the print is dry mounting to the under mat. A second mat, cut wider than the print's edges, surround the print so that when the image is under glass it does not touch the glass. Under the double mats is a one-eighth inch acid free foam board to give stability. I mat with an acid free Arctic White No. 63297 black core utility cardboard made by Crescent. The top mat board is bevel cut so that the black core creates an thin inner frame edge that separates the image from the upper mat. There is a one-half inch standoff of the upper mat from the top and sides of the prints and three-fourth of an inch is provided at the bottom to give me room to sign, title and number the prints (when that is requested). The upper mat is three inches wide at the top and sides and four inches wide at the bottom. Thus the final mat (framed) size is seven inches wider and eight and a quarter inches taller than the print size. This form of archival matting gives the prints a very classic exhibition look.

Framing is done under clear glass using a Clark Molding 1500-44 dull black aluminum frame, and it will be wired for hanging.

Shipping is done by insured UPS or FedEx according to your preference. The cost of shipping is extra and will depend on the type and speed of shipping chosen.

Sales within the state of Oklahoma will include the applicable 8% sales tax.

Payment should be by check. I require a deposit of one-half when the order is placed and printing will begin when the check is received and deposited. The balance due, with the estimated shipping charges will be required before the print is sent. All prints are shipped inside the US on a 10-day approval period. If you are not satisfied with your print, you may return it for a full refund (less the shipping expenses and a $25 handling fee).

Licensing fees will be negotiated on an item by item basis and will depend on the type of usage involved.

If you are interested, send me an e-mail note, or call at 918-333-6000, and I will get back to you as quickly as I can. Be sure to note the title and Jpeg filename of the image you are interested in and indicate which webpage the image is displayed on.
