How to send information and photos to the Museum
To provide information and photos for inclusion in the Virtual Museum, please send them to
Information@VickersViscount.net
Photos should be scanned as a JPEG (.jpg) ideally producing an image of at least 600 KB to give us something to
work from. Scanning prints at 600 DPI and slides and negatives at 1,200 DPI usually produces good results.
Don't worry about the condition of your photos as we can work wonders with most images that have strange colours,
dust marks, or blemishes. Contact Brian Burrage at
Information@vickersviscount.net for advice.
Brian can also scan any material on loan if required which would be handled with great care and returned promptly.
Any material supplied is gratefully appreciated.
