How are the prints shipped?

All prints are shipped from one of our US based facilities either in Pennsylvania or Utah.

Unframed prints come rolled up in a sturdy cardboard tube. Framed prints and canvas prints come shipped in a padded cardboard box that includes bubble wrap and additional padding.

Products are shipped via FedEx, UPS and USPS. The method is determined based on how we can get your print to you the fastest.

If there is a specific shipping carrier you prefer us to use, please email us after purchasing (ASAP) and let us know. We will make sure it ships via your preferred method.

How long does it take for shipping?

It typically takes approximately 6 - 8 days after purchasing for your print to arrive. Please note, around the holidays this timeframe can take considerably longer due to delays & congestion with the shipping carriers.

You will receive a shipping tracking number and link via e-mail once your package ships. You can visit the tracking link to keep an eye on progress and get a better estimation of exactly when your print will arrive.

All Available Frame Combinations

What material is the frame constructed from?

All frames are made with solid wood and real glass. Each frame is made by hand in the USA with care and attention to every last detail.

Each framed print already includes the necessary hardware for hanging on the wall. All you need is 2 nails, a hammer, and an open space on the wall.

What are the sizes of the framed prints, including the frame?

The total dimensions of the print including the frame will differ slightly depending on the selected frame style. The frame widths are listed below based on the selected style:

  • Standard Frame: 1.25" wide - This frame will ad 2.5" total inches of width to your print. So, for example, if you purchase a print that is 24" wide, after framing it the total width would be 26.5"

  • Beveled Frame: 1.25" wide - This frame will ad 2.5" total inches of width to your print. So, for example, if you purchase a print that is 24" wide, after framing it the total width would be 26.5"

  • Wide Frame: 1.75" wide - This frame will ad 3.5" total inches of width to your print. So, for example, if you purchase a print that is 24" wide, after framing it the total width would be 27.5"

  • Thin Frame: 0.625" wide - This frame will ad 1.25" total inches of width to your print. So, for example, if you purchase a print that is 24" wide, after framing it the total width would be 25.125"

How do the frames hang on the wall?

Each frame comes with hanging hardware pre-installed. The specific style of hardware depends on the specific frame style selected. Either way, 2 nails will be required for hanging your print.

Your framed print will come with one of these 2 options installed.

How large can you print these maps?

We can print one of these maps at any size up to 20 feet tall! The maximum size does depend on the type of product you purchase. Below is a list of each product, along with the maximum size we are able to print:

Our unframed prints and framed prints are printed on premium, heavyweight matte paper using high quality archival inks. This museum quality paper will last a lifetime and beyond.
