Images of America:
Houston Heights
Arcardia
Publishing has requested that HHA put together a book which will
be titled Images of America: Houston Heights. Arcadia
publishes regional histories (5,000 titles are in print), but
they have published very little in the state of Texas. These are
photographic records of community history. We are calling for
anyone who has photos they would like to share or perhaps knows
someone who might have photos to help us put together 180
photographs for this book. The enclosed release form indicates
that you give permission for the use of this photo (we will scan
the original and return it to you) only for this book.
Click here for
release form. It will
not be used for any other purpose. You will still retain all
rights to this photo. If your photo is selected,
your participation will be acknowledged in the caption below the
picture.
Requirements
set for the book by the publisher are fairly specific:
- Black and
white photos only
- No
smaller than 3 inches by 4 inches (please contact us about
smaller photos)
- Must be
Heights residents, homes, businesses, clubs or streets prior
to 1960
- No
newspaper articles or newspaper photos accepted
Please
identify all people, groups, businesses, and clubs, along with
physical location and approximate date. If you have any history
or stories to submit about the photo or persons, please include
with your submission.
