Ansel Adams Postcard Folio is a Perfect Notecard Alternative,
By J. Hobday (Minneapolis, Minnesota) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thirty Photographs: A Postcard Folio Book (Paperback)
"Ansel Adams : Thirty Photographs : A Postcard Folio Book" is a paperback book with 30 of Ansel Adams photographs as rip-out black and white postcards. His work is incredible. I have looked for an alternative to standard notecards for thank you notes, etc. for quite a while. I have found it with this book. It's a postcard/notecard that I feel good about sending. The photos are beautiful, serene and soothing. I'd highly recommend this book.

They are printed a little dark and not centered,

This review is from: Thirty Photographs: A Postcard Folio Book (Paperback)
I am one that loves Ansel Adams work, so when I saw the other reviews I jumped at the chance to buy this book. To be honest I am a little disappointed. They separate from the book nicely, but they are noticeably grainy and darker than anything else of his that I own. Some of the images you really have to look at because they are darker then anything else that is printed in blank and white. The most disappointing thing is that the image is not centered in the middle of the white frame. Some of them are printed high, and some of them are printed low, so they don't look perfect when you pull them out of the book.

Love it!,
This review is from: Thirty Photographs: A Postcard Folio Book (Paperback)
Gorgeous Prints! Great quality paper. I would buy it again or recommend it to a friend - or any fan of Ansel Adams. We're using them for our wedding RSVPs. I ordered 4 other postcard books and this is the only one that we're going to use. Enjoy!
