Saint Paul's Episcopal Church is on High Street, just west of the downtown area of the small town of Hickville, Ohio.

The church was built in 1875 by Alfred P. Edgerton, one of the town's founders. It is a beautiful example of the Carpenter Gothic style of architecture, which was popular for churches and houses in the late 19th Century.

American Gothic, a famous painting by American artist Grant Wood, features a Carpenter Gothic house in Iowa in the background. You can see in the painting the similarities in style between that house and Saint Paul's Church.

It is no longer used as a church; by the early 1970s, the congregation had dropped down to just three people; and the building was in bad condition. In 1975, the Hicksville Historical Society restored it to its original state and they continue to maintain the building.

Purchase Prints
by Christopher Crawford

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.

Credit card payment is handled through Paypal. You do not have to have a Paypal account. When you checkout, you will be taken to Paypal's site. If you have a Paypal account, sign in and approve the payment.

If you do not have a Paypal account, and do not want to sign up for one, there is a link on the Paypal page that says "Don't have a Paypal Account?" Click it to pay without signing up. It will accept your credit card like a normal credit card payment.

Unframed prints usually ship within 7 days. This allows time for me to make your print and to allow it to cure for several days before I package it to ship. Framed prints usually take about two weeks, because my framer usually requires about a week to complete his work.

Please Note: In late 2024, I was forced to dramatically increase the prices for framed prints. This reflects the actual cost of framing them. I make no profit from the additional charge for framing; I charge you what the framer charges me, and every framer that I know has had to ramp up prices due to inflation in recent years. I earn my living selling my photographs, and offer the framing at cost because many people prefer to buy a print that is framed and ready to display.

Thank you for supporting my work.
