About the work

A closer look.

Send me one claim with a picture, a place, or a title already stuck to it, and where it came from. I check it against the record and send back a short brief: what holds, what doesn't, and the source that settles it. The kind of thing this catches: a stock photo titled 'Titanic reading room' that is actually the Olympic's, told apart by one detail in the paneling. I work in English from archives and primary sources, and I say 'no verdict' rather than guess. New here: message the shop with one claim and I'll check it free before you order anything.
