    Where to get stamp for reverse side of photo ?

    I'd like to get a stamp to use on the reserve side of my prints, with room for information like title, date, paper, ink, signature etc.

    Can anyone recommend a source for this sort of stamp ?

    I ordered mine from a rubber stamp on line place, it came a few days later. Google for rubber stamp. If you have a traditional "stationary store" near you, I am sure you can order one that way too. Then you need archival ink...

    UPS store, Office Max, Office Depot?

    When I bought one, they screwed up the first edition including spelling my name wrong. Better to buy locally if they screw up the first one.

    Then the question becomes the archival nature or lack there of in the ink used.

    On the question of inks... which do we use so it will last and, more importantly - won't show from the front or bleed and cause problems?

    Got one from Simon's Stamps Inc.

    http://www.simonstamp.com/

    Fast turnaround, good quality. They also sell the archival ink.

    If you're not concerned with archival ink, Vistaprint or Office Depot make affordable custom stamps.

    Do any of these places offer real vulcanized rubber pressed from bakelite molds impressed from lead type?

    Or is it all photopolymer these days?

    I guess I'd settle for Cyrel.
