PANTHER
HAS CLOSED
It is with regret to inform you that Panther Imaging has ceased
trading.
We wish to thank
you for your custom and support over the past 10 years
and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
It is with great regret that after 10 years on this site and
over 30 years in the Clerkenwell area Panther has had to close
its doors and stop trading.
Surprisingly it only 6-7 years since digital photography really
gained popular support, although we have been involved with
it since the early 1990’s. Home printing and the lack
of desire to see images printed has gradually led the decline
in demand for the services that we offer. Now it seems more
popular to store pictures on a mobile phone or on a computer
without ever making a printed copy – we have always been
concerned that family history will be lost as these storage
methods are lost or replaced.
By introducing a bespoke framing service in 2004 we have been
able to complement our other services and this helped us to
survive until our 10th anniversary on this site. However even
this is now not enough to allow us to continue.
All of my staff are passionate about what they do and we hope
this has been evident in the level of service and care that
we have always strived for when undertaking your work. We are
all saddened by our demise and would like to thank every one
of our clients, for their business over the years.
We
have made many friends in the photographic industry and I recommend
the following companies who may be able to offer the services
you need.
For all photographic processing and printing:
‘Bayeux’ on 020 7436 1066 are based at 78 Newman
Street London W1
For supplies of film and general purpose photography materials
then the long established
Process Supplies on 020 7837 2179 and can be found locally at

0844 are just over the river at 12 Valentine Place, London,

and would be

So
it’s goodbye and good wishes for the future from Paul,
Kathy, Peter, Jacqui, John, Gosia and Amanda.
