glossy
lithographic print  on thick paper,
with U
.V. protective coating,
from a
hand printed original photograp
h
ic c
opy
from the original
print
,
cropped, and mounted on a single 8x10 inch backing board **which is included as part of the print that you can see here
(see photo) with caption and photography information on the back of
of a Hawaiian surfer and his dog "hanging ten" (toes on the nose) at Waikiki Beach, circa 1950s,
(Sorry we originally listed as 1930s which was apparently an error).
It is shrink wrapped to protect it from damage and has photography and preservation tips included in the label on the back. Some folks tell us it was old timer surfer/boxer "Scooter Boy" Kaopuiki, and his surf dog 'Sandy' although a relative says it was not him. It remains a mystery to us?
This photo is from an older grainy
print
and not from a digital camera so please be aware of that.
It would make a great birthday or holiday gift for someone who likes historic surfing images of Hawaii. They are popular reasonably priced decorations for restaurants, offices, homes, or stores where people can see them.
Our original lithographic photos are very popular and affordable to local people and tourists visiting Hawaii, as well as people who have never visited Hawaii. We're proud to mention that many of our photos awere used as background artwork in the new CBS television network series "Hawaii 5-0". The original print was the 'old style' traditional film based image printed using an enlarger from a copy negative on real photographic paper and archivally processed by hand, not by a machine. Then it was digitally corrected and transferred to the long lasting lithographic process. Prices are less than you would pay retail at a gallery or custom photo lab for a black and white print and production costs are lower than most folks so we want to offer affordable quality art for people who might not otherwise be able to afford it.

PLEASE ALSO NOTE
:
e-Bay's transfer process and the computer screen makes the photo look contrasty and slightly darker or lighter, depending on your monitor brightness and contrast settings. You may be able to see small imperfections on larger images . We do however crop and correct them so they look best. It is printed on 8x10 inch paper and margins may be slightly trimmed. **When it is attached to the single mat 8x10 inch backing board you will be able to see the backing board around the borders of the print. It makes the print look like there is a margin around the edges of the photo which you can see here.
Prints are permanently mounted to the acid free backing board using an archival photo adhesive and cannot easily be removed from the backing board without damaging the photo. An 11x14 inch frame (or larger) with a custom cut mat from a frame shop or art store is the suggested way to display this photo. If you want to use a larger frame and mat and you can't find an experienced framer who knows how to do it, contact us and we can provide information explaining how it can be done. This is recommended for best visual and artistic impact in displaying this photo, although many people are happy using a standard 8x10" frame and displaying the image as is. We also have a few 11x14's unmounted of this print also, please inquire.
