Do you clear all files with the Artist / Designer?
Yes, subject to our terms. In terms of Artworks, we have individually sought Clearance from every Artist before adding them to our Collection. In the case of Historical Artworks in public domain, we have worked with collections who research and whom have also restored the scans to optimal print quality.
In terms of Graphics, we offer graphics that use cleared/public domain imagery. Names have either been cleared by us (from the listed date) or our contributing graphic designers have assured us of the cleared nature, for incidental dressing. We highly recommend that each Production and GD seeks due diligence in checking, as we can not guarantee that at time of purchase the clearance will still stand. Please see our Production Licence Agreement below, for details of exactly what we offer. Our Licence is thorough, robust and based on typical needs of a Production.
What size are the images?
Art
Our artwork files are various sizes, with the file size often reflecting the size of the original artwork. We have listed our recommended print size on each listing, based on a 300dpi quality print – this is an estimation, and often fine art files can be printed at a larger size at a slightly lower dpi.

Or drop us an email to:

or titled ‘Graphics Submission’ in the header.
Please include a link to your website or thumbnail images of a small selection your work. If we think your work could be a good fit, we will get straight back to you with the next steps.

Graphics
For packaging, our graphics are mostly created to the correct size and ready to print – for example, a road sign vector, would be sized to the correct measurements.
Our other graphic files have the flexibility and detail to print to your desired size.
