Frank Van Riper & Judith Goodman:
“We cannot recommend Old Town Editions too highly…we/I have been working with them literally for decades for all our exhibition work and they simply are the best. The owner, Rachel Baron, is delightful and her staff also is great. They have a beautiful office/display space in Old Town that is a cinch to get to.
Linda Griffin, Watercolor Painter, (Winterville, NC):
“I have been using Old Town Editions for many years. The quality of work and outstanding service has forced me to drive from my relocated home in NC each time I have new work to reproduce! Again, I want to thank them for the outstanding job and concern for my schedule. Also Pat, thank you for taking the time to answer my friend’s questions about the process and distribution possibilities. When we left there last week my friend discovered she had lost a ring. We called from car and he said he would look around. Upon returning to the area where we had parked, we found Pat searching the pavement. That is certainly beyond the call!”
For over 13 years, since 2011, I have entrusted Old Town Editions with printing my self-published, archival pigment fine art prints. I find it almost impossible to identify the precise words that appropriately describe the incredible work they consistently deliver.
Old Town Editions stands as the epitome of excellence in the digital fine art printing industry. Their commitment to quality is unparalleled; every print they produce reflects the highest standards of craftsmanship. The colors they achieve are not merely accurate, but breathtakingly brilliant, bringing my artwork to life with unparalleled vibrancy and fidelity.
Beyond their exceptional technical prowess, Old Town Editions sets itself apart with their incomparable customer service. Their team goes above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the printing process meets my exacting standards. Their responsiveness, attention to detail, and genuine passion for artistry make working with them a true pleasure.
Without hesitation, I would highly recommend Old Town Editions to any artist or creator seeking the absolute best in fine art printing. Their dedication to excellence, combined with their unmatched quality and service, make them a true gem in the industry.
Terry Sitz, Mixed Media Artist (Silver Spring, MD):
“There are not enough adjectives to describe how magnificent the prints are that you crafted…truly an art in itself and in a class beyond anything I have seen or thought possible. There are printers, there may be a few print makers…Old Town Editions are print crafters. I feel like I have added Rachel & Pat to my art “team”…this is not a one time transaction, but a long term partnership! Thank you!!”
Charles Butler, Photographer (Alexandria, VA):
“Old Town Editions does amazing, high quality work. While the finished product truly speaks for itself, their customer service and support through the whole printing process is the best I have ever worked with. Highly recommend!!!”
Phil Trager, photographer:
“I wanted to thank you again for all of the sensitivity, intelligence and dedication that you applied to making my giclee prints. I think the results are spectacular and you made that possible. I look forward to a long and continuing relationship over the years.”
Cheryl Lavoie, artist:
“OTE is truly the best operation in town if you’re looking for a place to take your precious art, faded photos, and digital images. This is truly a gathering of highly talented people who work together to do their utmost to make you a very satisfied customer!”
Peter Mersky:
“As a 1967 graduate of RISD, with a “major” in Illustration, most of my time has been involved with military aviation. I have written 17 published books, and some 100 articles, as well as 800 reviews of books on that subject for a number of magazines. Thus, I’d like to think I have some idea of what makes a good commercial printer that serves the general consumer. I have found one in Old Town Editions in Alexandria, Virginia. Rachel Baron and her dedicated staff have never disappointed me whenever I have placed an order to print an artist’s work that I end up adding my personal collection of aviation artwork. They are immediately attentive to my requirements and always produce an outstanding print that quickly commands attention. I highly recommend Old Town Editions.”
Old Town Editions provides the most outstanding work in the industry. If you want the best in fine art printing they are the solution. Great customer service and nice people to work with.
Gary Hesse, Associate Director of Light Work:
“The…edition of 75 John Pfahl prints looks great. Thanks for all of your help, without you [Chris] and Mark’s help this project would not have been possible….The exhibition has been installed, and it is receiving rave reviews.”
John Pfahl, photographer (Fairfield, CT):
“You might be interested to know that the curators at the [museum] loved the portfolio and are presenting it to their acquisitions committee–the entire twenty prints!”
Jean Grastorf, watercolor painter (Springfield, IL):
“The giclees are fantastic! They look like the ‘real thing’ and the paper, printing and presentation are just great.”
Carol Boss, Marketing Services Manager Hahnemuhle Papers (Crystal Lake, IL):
“As a Marketing Services Manager for Hahnemuhle I have had the pleasure to work hand in hand over the years with Old Town Editions to insure a strong connection acting as the representative manufacturer of their primary paper line. We are proud to be associated with a digital fine art printmaking studio of their caliber that provides their clients with a genuine level of professional commitment and trust along with their invaluable attention to detail.”
I wanted to let you know that my giclees and originals have arrived and are all unpacked. (You guys do an incredible packing job!) They were here a bit before 11 this morning, a full day ahead of schedule. (As I tracked them — so EASY —- I realized they would be here sometime today.) And they look absolutely wonderful. I have examined the top one of each image and am so pleased. The color is so rich and the detail … well it’s all there! I can’t wait for the gallery owners to see them. They are magnificent!
Betsy Karasik, Painting (Washington, DC):
“Great company ~ they do a splendid job on all my giclees and are super nice!”
Old Town Editions has consistently reproduced my photography in absolutely stunning detail, color fidelity and consistency. Pat and Rachel are true masters of the craft of fine art reproduction and can assist in all levels of the process, from image prep to clean-up to complex file adjustments- they operate on a “CAN-DO” mentality and approach. They have done research to come up with the finest products and processes, they implement them efficiently and are extremely engaged with the client at all stages of the print development. I’ve had works reproduced on cotton rag as well as canvas and the results have always been a clear extension of my work, done in a timely and pleasant manner. Top notch and most highly recommended!!!
Anne Rust Pearson, Oil Painter (VA)
“I just wanted to thank you so much for all the time and attention you gave me last week. It really was a great experience and certainly exceeded all my expectations! I left with lots of ideas and guidence to move forward. Looking forward to seeing my proofs – and beyond”
Alvena McCormick
“Old Town Editions is the best company you could work with for competency and quality. My clients rave about the quality of the print! I go to the TOP to get the best print and service every and have for years.”
Lonnie Bergeron, Artifact Reproduction
“Old Town Editions…fast, friendly, affordable, high quality. I needed two important, old photographs reproduced from a page in a book, both enlarging and preserving as much detail as possible so I could frame the resulting print. Without damaging the book, Old Town Editions enlarged and improved the quality of the photographs, printed them on one of several choices of high-grade paper, and they even gave me the image on a CD. It is impossible to tell the prints were reproduced from a bound, hardcover book. I had to call back to order additional prints, and they had them ready to go within hours. They’re one of the best at customer service I’ve experienced in years.”
Arthur Dion, Gallery NAGA (Boston, MA):
“The color prints and the black-and-whites look terrific….The color prints have a fidelity and pop such that all comers are at first taking them as Polaroids. Today that included a critic who has looked at Elsa’s work for decades.”
Carol Bolsey, Oil painter (Kingston, MA):
“Old Town Editions has made prints of my artworks for over twenty years. Their work is superb: color is exact, sharpness and texture are precise and tactile, and the staff is helpful and amiable. recommend them in the highest terms.”
Susan Makara, Acrylic, Oil, and Scratch Board (Torpedo Factory, Alexandria, VA):
“Old Town Editions is the premier company for fine art reproductions. Their focus on detail and accurate color match is unsurpassed. They are completely devoted to their work and their clients. I highly recommend Old Town Editions.”
Patricia Palermino, Folk Art (Alexandria, VA):
“Old Town Editions is a first rate digital printing company. I have been very pleased with all of the work they have done for me. The colors are accurate and crisp and the printed result is true to the original. I highly recommend them.”
