Thank you for your interest in obtaining a print, transparency, slide or digital image of an illustration owned by the White House Historical Association (WHHA). Most WHHA illustrations, including those appearing in The White House: An Historic Guide, The Presidents, The First Ladies, The Living White House, The White House Garden, Art in the White House: A Nation’s Pride, and The White House: Its Historic Furnishings and First Families may be reproduced for personal, nonprofit, and certain commercial uses. The White House Historical Association will review each photographic reproduction request and will grant or deny use permission on a case by case basis. The following are guidelines only: Permission to use WHHA images may be granted for the following purposes:
The following uses are not allowed:
The following specifications must be followed when using a WHHA image:
Requests for photographic reproduction permission must be submitted in writing and should include the following:
FEES Personal Use: There
is an image fee but no use fee charged for personal use. However, since
photographs for personal use are considered a special order, all
sales are final. The photographic material cannot be returned and
the fee is not refundable. Exchanges will be provided only in cases of
obvious errors (such as the wrong photograph being sent, or shipping
damage to the photographic material). WHHA will not be responsible for
variations in the colors or tints in the photographic material when
compared to the original work, or a reproduction of the material found
in other media. If permission is granted for the use of an illustration in a product that is not for sale, the WHHA charges a one-time use fee for each illustration of $50. If the item will be offered for sale, a $75 fee will be charged for each use of an illustration. If there is an additional need for the photographic material beyond the use originally contracted for, additional permission must be obtained for that additional use before publication. There will be a usage charge for each such additional use. If an illustration in one of the WHHA’s publications or slides is "lifted" for use in a commercial medium, written permission must be obtained in advance. If permission is granted, a reproduction fee must be paid prior to such "lifting." A credit line must be printed adjacent to each WHHA image or included in the end credits. The credit line should read as specified at the time permission is granted. If
the desired photographic material is to be made from a transparency, an
advance deposit of $50 is required and will be refunded upon prompt
return of the transparency in reusable condition. Reusable
transparencies should be returned within 90 days to receive a full
refund. To keep the transparency longer than the original 90 days,
contact the photo archivist for an extension. There will be a charge of
$5 for each additional 30 days the material is not returned. If permission is granted for the use of an illustration, the association charges a one-time use fee of $100 for each transparency, slide, or photograph used in any medium produced or published by a commercial enterprise. If there is an additional need for the photographic material beyond the use originally contracted for, additional permission must be obtained for that additional use before publication. There will be a use charge of $100 for each such additional use. If an illustration in one of the WHHA’s publications or slides is "lifted" for use in a commercial medium, written permission must be obtained in advance. If permission is granted, a $100 reproduction fee must be paid prior to such "lifting." A credit line must be printed adjacent to each WHHA image or included in the end credits. The credit line should read as specified at the time permission is granted. If
the desired photographic material is to be made from a transparency, an
advance deposit of $50 is required and will be refunded upon prompt
return of the transparency in reusable condition. Reusable
transparencies should be returned within 90 days to receive a full
refund. To keep the transparency longer than the original 90 days,
contact the photo archivist for an extension. There will be a charge of
$5 for each additional 30 days the material is not returned. We
are able to provide some images digitally. If the desired image is to
be sent digitally, please specify the exact size and ppi needed. If the
image already exists in scanned format then the cost is $20. If a new
scan must be made then the cost is $30. Price of the CD to contain the
images is $15. All photographs are produced unmated and unmounted. Photographs (color or black and white): 8" x 10" $40 11" x 14" $60 16" x 20" $80 20" x 24" $100 Deposit on 4" x 5" transparencies, black & white or color is $50. There will be a non-refundable processing fee of $50 for all orders that exceed ten transparencies. Digital files are $20 for an existing scan and $30 for a new scan. Cost of the CD is an extra $15. For payment, the WHHA accepts cash, checks (payable to the White House Historical Association), American Express, MasterCard, or Visa. Please include your order number on the payment. NOTE: Sizes of photographs are given for the longer dimensions; the smaller dimensions will vary according to the proportions of the originals. As artwork does not always coincide with the sizes set forth above, materials are reproduced as large as possible for the sizes of photographic prints ordered. Prints will show full images, untrimmed, to the extent possible. Digital files include scans from 4x5 transparencies or 8x10 prints cleaned of major dirt and dust, to match the specifications of the customer, and not to exceed 14 inches at 300ppi. Color images are corrected to a pleasing color through global corrections only. Digital files may require minimal additional corrections before final production (i.e. un-sharp masking). Because the WHHA does not maintain a large inventory of transparencies, slides, or photographs, all orders are custom orders. It is necessary to receive payment at the time the order is placed. Your request will be processed in approximately four weeks following the receipt of your order and payment. Shipping: All domestic orders include shipping via ground Federal Express. If the customer needs the order to arrive quickly, they should provide us with additional payment and/or a federal express or UPS number. All international orders must provide an additional charge for payment. Prices available on request.
