Barksdale, the pioneer of school photography, celebrates 101st anniversary Mr. S.P. Barksdale, the founding father of the school picture industry, was employed by the WilsonMagazineCompany in theearly1900s. In1922, hisgood friendwas the superintendent of the Philadelphia Public School System. As the district was building its student files, Barksdale was asked to provide photos of each student to be attached to the records. He agreed, as long as he could also sell the photos to the parents to help pay for the service. Other school districts heard of the idea and asked Barksdale for photos of their students. The school picture industry was born. S.P. Barksdale even built the first school picture camera. Today, Barksdale – under the leadership of S.P.’s great grandchildren – provides school picture services to more than 2,000 schools across the country from their headquarters in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

SPRING PICTURES - 10% COMMISSION BACK TO SCHOOLS
Speculation • PrePay • Our Spring program allows students to be photographed in a more casual, studio-like setting. • 3/4 posing, variety packages, horizontal & vertical prints, and more...
Program offers parents unique products and backgrounds not available in the fall. Spring bookmark reminder notices are supplied for each student in an effort to keep your staff, students and parents informed about picture day. These reminders can be distributed as each school sees fit. We offer spring portraits on either a pre-pay or speculation sale . With a prepay sale , the school sends our notices home two weeks prior to the picture day. All students are photographed. All picture packages are delivered to the school. With a speculation sale , each student is photographed on picture day and no money is collected. Within 4 weeks, the students receive a packet of pictures. The parents can purchase the entire packet or just a unit or sheet of pictures. Parents return the payment or unwanted pictures to the school andThe Barksdale Group will send a representative to collect the money. The Barksdale Group does not penalize the school for non-return of pictures or funds. Spring Portraits are an excellent fund raiser for the school. With a prepay or speculation sale, schools will receive a percentage of the spring gross sale (less sales tax) on all packages and package options. This system of paying commission on all items purchased often results in more commission dollars delivered back to the school, vs. competitors who pay commission on base packages and not on package options.
