Quite a few people who have visited my office at Brigham Young University or visited my webpage (especially the Trombone History Timeline) have asked where they can buy reproductions of the trombone artwork. Below are the images I have had luck getting copies of myself. I have seen a number of others for sale as well, but for now, I will limit this list to the reproductions I have successfully purchased myself. I am also not including images by living artists, since their work is not in the public domain, and thus cannot be easily shown on this blog post. I have organized the pictures chronologically out of simple convenience.
