Please note that requests for digital images may take between four and six weeks to fulfill. Please carefully consider all editorial deadlines and allow ample time to process a request.

Please be advised that PEM has begun a multiyear collection moving project to the James B. and Mary Lou Hawkes Collection Center, a state-of-the-art, 120,000-square-foot facility in Rowley, Massachusetts. Due to the magnitude of the project and the significant demands on staff members, PEM has instituted a moratorium on collection access until July 1, 2026. As a result, we cannot accommodate requests for new photography of collection items.

We sincerely regret any inconvenience this may cause, and we thank you for your patience and understanding as we embark on a comprehensive upgrade to PEM’s collection storage and access.

Images acquired for research purposes may not be reproduced without a separate written agreement from PEM. PEM reserves the right to charge a fee for reproduction, depending on the use and distribution of the images. The requestor will be responsible for obtaining any necessary third-party permissions or consent required.

Please note that this is a request for digital images. If you would like to conduct research on collection objects or in PEM’s research archives at the Hawkes Collection Center, please use the Collection Access & Research form to request an appointment.
