About Us
While we may be one of many companies producing giclée reproduction maps and prints, there is something special that sets us apart; our years of experience with original material. Our primary profession is dealing with authentic, antique maps and prints. The majority of our images are of the very same maps we've owned at one time or another. As a result we have great knowledge and experi
ence with regards to understanding the history of these maps as well as matching our reproductions to the originals. About Our Reproductions
All of our prints are made from high resolution scans of original maps, the majority of which we owned at some point in time. Since we also deal in original maps through a separate company, we are well versed in how our facsimile prints are supposed to appear. While elements of age such as foxing, offsetting, and pigment oxidation have been left untouched, we've spent hours digitally restoring foreign imperfections, some of which include stains, paper tears, and writing that is not contemporaneous with the piece. All of our map reproductions are giclée quality prints on premium archival matte paper. This heavyweight paper is smooth to the touch, neutral-white, acid-free for a longer print life and features an instant-dry coating that resists fingerprints and smudging.
