"Dear Mr Brown, I just wanted to write you this afternoon in regards to a wonderful series of interactions I had with Jessica Talmage. Ms. Talmage followed up repeatedly on a difficult image request of ours with your Spanish agent, AISA, and was able to get us a much needed larger scan in a very expedient amount of time. Throughout the process Ms. Talmage kept me up to date, and was very graceful under pressure.
I wanted to take the time and opportunity to tell about this experience, and to compliment you on your quality people at the Mary Evans Picture Library. Although often our image subject needs fall outside of your sphere, I will not hesitate to go to Mary Evans in the future when appropriate. It was truly a great experience!

"I would also like to say that whenever I need something of yours, and usually at short notice, I find everyone at Mary Evans to be most helpful and extremely efficient.

"I must say, it is a pleasure to work with MARY EVANS and especially with you, Tom. I feel, I have to mention this, as it is not the rule these days. People utter their opinions when they have something to complain about and rather seldom do they write anything, when a cooperation is fine. Money, I feel, is not everything in the world. Quality of work and life means also the pleasure to work with decent people..."

"Dear Mr. Vivian, Many thanks .... the Mary Evans Picture Library has been the most efficient and helpful of all the various picture libraries I have dealt with in the course of compiling the photographs for this book."

"There are many picture libraries who now send us regular newsletters and updates on their activities, but while I delete most of them rather quickly, I always take the time to explore one or all of the featured topics within the Mary Evans newsletter. It is fascinating, stimulating and totally British in its quirkiness! The library has successfully transferred the quintessential flavour of the archive to its web presence."

"Dear Tom, I just wanted to say thank you to you and Rachael for all your excellent searching. It's going to be a really strong picture book and I'm really
grateful, I thought all the material you sent though was amazing - it's taken me quite a while to get through it all because it was all so interesting. I now have a huge pile of picture options so thanks again."
