I am not registered with PayPal, can I still order over the web?

You can pay via PayPal using your debit/credit card as a 'guest', without opening an account. The PayPal website will guide you through this process. You can alternatively order over the phone 01730 813169, or by emailing sales@middletonpress.co.uk if you would prefer to pay by cheque.

Why are there no page numbers in the books?

When Vic Mitchell founded Middleton Press back in the 1980s he wanted the books to be pictorial albums. Instead of using page numbers, he used the Contents at the front to refer to the Picture Caption Numbers. We still stick to this rule today.
