We handcraft cards and
prints from 16th-20th century
natural history books.
Welcome to Graham & Carolyn’s Cards & Prints!
For many years we have enjoyed collecting the engravings of natural history artists whose work spans the 16th to the early 20th century. We create beautiful greeting cards and reproduction prints from our collection. Our cards and prints are handcrafted in our home studio in Salem, Oregon. We also offer a selection of original engravings, including some exceptional framed pieces. We invite you to sign up for our monthly newsletter, and don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions. Happy browsing!
Greeting Cards
We love our greeting cards and we think you will too! The process of creating our cards begins with selecting images from our collection. We use archival grade inks and papers to create vibrant cards that will not fade over time.
Each card is 5x7 inches in size and comes with an accompanying envelope and sheet of stationary. The cards are blank inside. On the back of each card is the name of the artist, the title of the work the image originally came from, and the year published.
Matted Prints
We currently offer ready to frame matted prints that are easy to pop into a frame of your own choosing. Each item is printed and matted in our studio. We offer these in one size only - the matt size is 8”x10” and the image opening is 4.5”x6.5”. No choosing matt board, no measuring or cutting, no guessing at colors, no fuss! We invite you to browse our selection in the gallery below.
Original engravings - framed and ready to hang!
We are proud to offer a small and special selection of original engravings for sale. These items are framed by a local shop with whom we have worked for many years. They have over forty years of combined experience with conservation framing and do exceptionally beautiful work that meets all museum standards.
