I am preparing a book 'Slate, Sail & Steam; the Growth of Porthmadog's Industries' for Amberley Publishing.
I would like to use your picture of the 'Pride of Wales'. I would only need it as a digital image on a disk, to 600dpi.
Could you do this and how much would you charge?
Yours
John Idris Jones Ruthin
