Photo plea!

May 11, 2009 17:11

I am looking for a couple of pictures to use in a temporary display panel at the museum. Credit will be given on the panel, but we can't afford to pay, hence the plea for pics from friends ( Read more... )

Have fwd it on to Em and Dave who've been to Egypt - they mat have something. Alas, we never had any picture sof my doll's house (which is odd, because it was as tall as me, at the time, and stood in my room for a good few years!) Don't think I've got any pictures of farm equipment either. There's lots of pictures of us on hay bails, but I guess that's rather different!

Mini farm equipment was what I needed - toy sized but for display. Seem to have it covered now thanks to my amazing flist!

I can get you photos of farm equipment at the weekend (and possibly a doll house) if that would help?

I think I have the farm equipment covered now, thanks, but possibly a dolls house shot would be good! I am looking to see if I can find the photo of mine...

I'll try. My cousin has one - but we might have one in school. :)

A model from an Egyptian tomb? I have photos from inside Egyptian tombs (I think, I'll have to check the photos!) if that'd be ok?

For farm equipment, there's this plough (I think it was a plough - it was something farm-based, at least!).

Any help?

I seem to have the model plough sorted, but thank you. I am specificly looking for a pic of the models that they used to put in as grave goods for the person to have slaves/a boat/a house in the afterlife. Anything like that would be fab!

Just a photo or two of a model would be amazing, thank you so much! If you could email it to S dot L dot Kerrison at dunelm dot org dot uk I would love you forever...(or something less scary). I have a paragraph on the panel about how sales reps used to carry models rather than the real thing, and a mini plough or harrow (or anything farm-like) would fit the bill perfectly.

I know you said you can't pay - but have you looked on the Stock Photography sites? e.g. http://www.istockphoto.com/index.php
