Smoke Signals photo
reprint policy
See a photo you like in Smoke Signals?
Want a copy, or several copies?
Want to see if a photo that was taken but not printed in Smoke Signals
because of space limitations might be something you’d like hanging on
your living room wall?
Tribal members can order 8-by-10 inch copies of photos taken by
Smoke Signals staff members regardless of if they were published in
the newspaper.
Charge is $1 for each print ordered. Reprint orders must be pre-paid
with a check made out to Smoke Signals. A photo reprint order form is
available in the Publications Office of the Tribe’s Governance Building
in Grand Ronde, or can be mailed upon request. All photos contained in
Smoke Signals’ current archive are available for purchase, but people
interested in going through the archive must make an appointment to
review photos for possible purchase.
No rush orders will be permitted and requestors must allow 30 days
for delivery. Requestors must be Tribal members.
In addition, reprint requestors must agree that the reprint is for
personal use only, and not for use in an ad, or for commercial, political
or promotional purposes.
Smoke Signals reserves the right to decline a reprint request. To re-
quest a reprint order form, write to Smoke Signals at 9615 Grand Ronde
Road, Grand Ronde, OR 97347, or call Michelle Alaimo at 503-879-1961
or 800-422-0232. n
