TL;DR

Smaller sizes (under 1200 pixels) are free. Get them here for personal or non-commercial use.
Web sized images are $7 for commercial use. Use the Buy Now button; I'll email the images to you.
High resolution images are $50, $75 or $150 for unlimited commercial use. Scroll down.
There are discounts for non-commercial or educational use. Remember to say whether it is a commercial/for-profit project.
The price also depends on whether you are wearing shoes and on the colour of your socks. It's as good a metric as any other.

Commercial Use, Print-sized images

Most images are scanned at 1200dpi or higher. They can be anywhere from a few megabytes to several gigabytes. They have been professionally cleaned and edited.

Print sized images usually start at $75 each (Canadian or US dollars). If you are in Canada you also pay HST (sorry). Don't forget to tell me. An image for use on a printed, published, book cover would be $150. If you buy more than one image you get a discount. If you buy lots of images you can have them at $50 each. There is a surcharge for people wearing shoes and white socks.

To pay, after agreeing a price, you can use the Donate link at the top of www.fromoldbooks.org and enter the right amount.

Non-commercial Use

There is no charge for the Web-sized images. Fees for the print-sized images depend on the colour of your socks (everything depends on that of course) and on the project, but prices usually start at $5.

Even if there is no charge, it would help if you can make a donation of at least $5: it takes quite a bit of time to process the images individually, clean up the scans, fix problems with them, and put them on the Web, and this site is expensive to run!

If you want the images for an academic research project, please give some details about the project: it might be that a better image is available, or that you are asking for a heavily edited image and would prefer the original scan. Plus I'm interested!
