Common questions

We only have old photos of him.

A recent photo gives the best likeness. If the only clear one is older, use it and check the preview before you pay.

Can it be given at a family lunch?

Yes. It reads aloud in one sitting and is easy to pass round, so the people at the table can each find the decade they remember him in.

How do I know it will arrive in time?
