This map or print has been carefully restored and recreated onto a heavy 100% cotton canvas and not a fragile paper. My maps can be easily rolled to be presented as a gift or retrieved from storage to be unrolled to reveal a fascinating historical conversation piece.

On certain monitors and smart phones, colors may look excessively bright because your screen is lit from behind. I can assure you that the colors will not be so garish when you receive your map. Instead you will be appreciative of the heft and quality of the highly textured canvas, which can sustain a certain amount of rolling up and abuse. These were designed to be heirlooms.

Your item has a durable protective coating which would allow it to be framed without heavy, glaring glass. Feel free to touch it!

Frame it yourself! Not all that hard to do. A rustic looking frame will enhance its appearance or just use the 4 map pins, provided at no charge, to tack to your wall or message board.

Are you looking for a specific locale? We have Everywhere! Just send us your inquiry.

Desire a different size? Send us your requirements. We can select a print for you that fits perfectly into an old frame you might have in your attic or garage!

Included free with your purchase are 4 small map pins to allow your item to be pinned to your drywall or bulletin board.

All unit measurements are approximate, most usually 50x 70 cm, 20 x 25" approx.
