Description: Restored and improved imageState Street shopping district downtown Chicago 1920s This Roaring 20s photo originally appeared on a Keystone stereoview. It is quite sharp. The famous clock on Marshall Fields store is partially visible in the upper left corner. Please see our other photos of State Street and other Chicago photos. Check out all our items! You will receive a 5-inch by 7-inch (5x7) print that will ship the next business day after you pay, unless you request to substitute images on a CD (see "CD option" below). Your request must be made in eBay on the same day that you pay. Larger-size prints are also available, listed separately. See "Larger sizes are available" below. This image is not the same proportions as 5x7 prints. So, your print will have white margins outside the image on the left and right sides, so that we don't have to crop out any of the image. This improved print was made for you new, in a photo lab. We took great care to preserve the sharpness and old look while removing scratches, spots, and other damage that would make it less viewable. We have repaired imperfections and improved tonal values. Why buy this photo: This print would be a good conversation starter in a restaurant, waiting room, lobby, office, classroom, library, or museum in the Chicago area. Decorators use our sepia-tone prints in a variety of ways to make them look old (see "Tone options" below). This print could also be a gift for a history buff or someone who has roots in Chicago. It can be resold in a store (see "Wholesale lots" below). Our photos can be used in school reports, presentations, and displays. This is a significantly improved version of the image and it must be licensed for use in a publication, production, or other product (see "Licenses" below). Larger size prints are available (listed separately): This image is not the same proportions as 5x7. So, it will have white margins to the left and right of the image. However, you can request to substitute digital images on a CD (see "CD option" below). Be sure to make your request on the same day that you pay.

It will not be cropped for the 5x7 size. This means the entire image, as shown, will be visible and there will be white margins, about 1/2 inch, outside the image, outside the image on the left and right sides of the print. These white margins will be visible when the print is displayed in standard frames unless you mat it. Larger-size prints will be cropped to fit unless otherwise stated in their listingsTone: Your print will have a sepia tone as shown. Sepia is the color of old prints today, caused by acid in the old paper. Many people prefer the warm sepia tones over cold black and white. Your sepia print will be on acid-free paper, but it will look old. Black and white is available, listed separately. Click "Ask a question" to ask how to purchase black and white prints.Finish: Your print will have a luster finish that reduces glare. Glossy is available, listed separately. Click "Ask a question" to ask how to purchase glossy finish.Border: The edges of our prints that do not have crop margins have a minimum border. This means that there may be some white edges (less than 1/4 inch wide) outside the image so that you can display the maximum amount of the image in typical devices that hide the edges of the print.Quality: We select the highest-quality images we can find and carefully restore and improve them. Old photos do not meet today’s high standards due to the limitations of the materials and methods available in those days, and due to aging and damage. But we improve them as much as we can while preserving an old look. Then we process them using modern archival methods so they can be affordable and last for many years. CD option: You can request to substitute a CD instead of a print. The CD will contain more than one version of the image, including at least one cropped close-up, that are optimized for digital presentations, websites, social media and e-mail. The images will not exceed 1200 pixels in the longest dimension, and thus may not fill the screen when used for high definition displays. If we have additional related images, we will include them on the CD. If we have additional information about an image, we will include a text file as well. You must request the CD in eBay on the same day that you pay. The CD and images shall not be printed nor reproduced for sale nor distribution. Packaging: We ship 5x7 prints and CDs flat with a stiff board to prevent folding, in a sturdy envelope. Shipping time: If you do not request the CD, your 5x7 print will ship the next business day after we receive your payment. To get the CD, you must request it in eBay on the same day that you pay for this item. If you purchase additional eBay items from quaintcards to ship together, an extra day or two may also be required. The time required by the postal services to deliver your package depends on shipping method, Customs requirements, weather, holidays, and other factors beyond our control.
