Vintage music photographs from Quirky Prints

Old pictures of music! Vintage collections of musicians! Impossible we hear you cry! However, look at the vintage music photographs from Quirky Prints and you will see what we mean.

When the aim of creating an on-line art gallery from original vintage photographs was born, the team at Quirky Prints had their work cut out. Months of searching and investigating resulted, in the hunt to produce a beautiful archive of old black and white, colour and sepia images for their customers. This search took them to hundreds of antique shops, collectors’ fairs, vintage photograph traders and specialists around the UK.

The resulting collection is literally thousands of hand-picked vintage photographs, on all manner of subjects, including landscapes, people, shops, far-flung civilizations and transport from years ago. Among the many old black and white photographs that were collected, were some appealing vintage music photographs from years passed by.

Within a category dedicated to MUSIC on their website, Quirky Prints offers a choice of the unique vintage photographs they discovered. There is an impressive brass band sporting top hats no less! Traditional bell-ringers, organ grinders, banjo players, pianists and conductors are all frozen in time, caught in exquisite black and white photographic detail.

These old, overlooked, but delightful vintage photographs, make stunning framed art prints. They become unusual art prints, which can be hung in our homes, or bought as an original and unusual gift idea for friends. No matter that we know nothing of the people or places in these old photographs. These rare pictures have their own unique story to tell. In addition, they have as much meaning and resonance with us now, as they had for those involved in creating the vintage photograph all those years ago.

The original vintage music photographs are all reproduced using the Giclée method on finest grade, heavyweight fine art paper, to preserve all the fine detail and quality of the image. They are then enlarged and presented in contemporary metal frames, which have been carefully chosen both to enhance the images and to enhance any style of home decor.

For anyone who is absolutely uninspired and tired with exactly the same prints offered for sale in the high street – those thousands of similar pictures that appear in thousands of homes across the UK - Quirky Prints offers something new, some different - A great Interior design idea - Something Quirky in fact!

There are thirty-four other categories to pick from on the Quirky Prints website - from Agriculture to World War II – with literally thousands of images taken from old vintage photographs. Each of the old black and white photographs has been carefully restored to remove any damage, but preserve the originality of the image. Others have been painstakingly hand coloured or had their original colours renewed.

The end result is a remarkable visual time capsule of years gone by. Within the collection of vintage music photographs on the Quirky Prints website, we are able to visualize how music made the world go round all those years ago!
