Desert Caballeros Western Museum is very pleased to announce the introduction of an exciting and innovative service.

In association with LookClickPrint, Inc., we are now providing patrons with unprecedented access to Museum images and the ability to selectively re-create those images for their own personal enjoyment. Previously, we were able to offer a limited number of images from our collection. Our collaboration with LookClickPrint provides us with the ability to vastly increase the number of images available, and to reproduce each of those images with and astonishing detail.

Visitors to the Museum Store or the LookClickPrint web site, www.lookclickprint.com may now search, select, and purchase extraordinary state-of-the-art reproductions from our permanent collection and special exhibitions.

LookClickPrint and our associated museums are committed to providing you with artwork of superb quality. Our equipment and techniques conform to the highest standards used in the creation of fine art limited editions. We are dedicated to providing you with images of lasting beauty and enjoyment.

The images are available on either paper or canvas, and are offered in a variety of sizes.

This service will greatly expand and extend the beauty of the Desert Caballeros Western Museum experience for all of our patrons, and provide revenue for the Museum.
