Follow The Stars - A Celebration of Christmas Fundraising for MacMillan Cancer Support

Oxford Duplication Centre are proud to support MacMillan Cancer Support with their archival artwork support for their kOrky's artwork.

It's only a few days now until the Premiere of Follow the Stars in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support and the committee is so looking forward to it. We very much hope you will tune in and enjoy it too; the link will be on the JustGiving page, there will be a countdown and the programme will start at 8pm.

The concert is available to view until 31st December so please feel free to enjoy with friends and family over the festive period. If you signed up you will also get a reminder on Friday, but thought I would email you the list too just incase.

Let’s hope next year we will all be looking forward to meeting for A Celebration of Christmas in Christ Church Cathedral.

History of Real Tennis - The Royal Game

History of Real Tennis “To see Good Tennis! What divine joy Can fill our leisure, or our minds employ? Let other people play at other things; The King of Games is still the Game of Kings” from Parker’s Piece by J.K. Stephen Recently we were requested to digitise photographs for a client who's son had refurbished a Victorian Real Tennis Court. What followed was a fascinating history of Real Tennis. Real Tennis is still almost the same sport as the Royal Game that was played with such great enthusiasm at all the princely courts of Europe and by a large contingent of the urban elite between roughly 1500-1800. After 1800 the interest in the game dwindled on the continent, but it survived in Great Britain. After 1874, when the new game of lawn tennis swept the country, royal tennis became more fashionable again among the English aristocracy. By the year 1900 the popularity of lawn tennis was so great that it was universally called "tennis" and the old game ha...

Photograph Archiving for Oxford United Football Club

Scanning Archival Photographic Images - Community Heritage Projects Our archive department has been busy working on Oxford United Football Club's archive of photographs. Before we scan the photos, it is important to consider the way in which the files will be organised. Either by date, event, image size and how the files will be names. Handling and Cleaning Photographs Our archive suite ensures to carefully handle the photographic historical items by their edges to avoid damage from fingerprints. Fingerprints are a significant threat to photographic materials and can be very difficult to correct. Fingerprints may not manifest in photographic materials until long after the actual incident of touching the surface. Air blowers are used to remove dust and a lint-free wipe or cloth to clean the scanning bed before scanning. Our archive technicians wear cotton or latex gloves when handling historical items. Dust on historical items and scanning beds ...
