Digital Map Information
Geographicus maintains an archive of high-resolution rare map scans. We scan our maps at 300 DPI or higher, with newer images being 600 DPI, (either TIFF or JPEG, depending on when the scan was done) which is most cases in suitable for enlargement and printing.

How Large Can I Print?
In general, at 300 DPI, you should at least be able to double the size of the actual image, more so with our 600 DPI images. So, if the original was 10 x 12 inches, you can print at 20 x 24 inches, without quality loss. If your display requirements can accommodate some loss in image quality, you can make it even larger. That being said, no quality of scan will allow you to blow up at 10 x 12 inch map to wall size without significant quality loss. For more information, it is best consult a printer or reprographics specialist.
Refunds
If the high resolution image you ordered is unavailable, we will fully refund your purchase. Otherwise, digital images scans are a service, not a tangible product, and cannot be returned or refunded once the download link is used.
Cartographer S
Kenneth Albert Friedman (November 14, 1896 - February 7, 1992) was an American cartoonist and commercial artist. Born in Tatum Mine, Georgia, Friedman had moved to Jacksonville by 1920. He wrote and published Florida Highlights Illustrated, which was named the Official Florida Souvenir of the 1934 Chicago World's Fair. In 1938 Ken Friedman's Cartoon Guide of Florida was published by J.J. Augustin. He served in the Army during World War II, although we have not been able to locate detailed service records. He died in Jacksonville. More by this mapmaker...
Johannes Jakob Augustin (October 12, 1904 - March 1, 1984) was a Jewish-American New York City based printer and publisher active in the mid-20th century. Augustin inherits the legacy of one of the world's oldest and longest running printshops. The firm was founded in 1632 by Andreas Koch in Glückstadt, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. At its founding the print shop was approved by the Danish King Christian IV and became one of the country's most important publishers - with an unusual specialization in foreign characters. In 1775, it was taken over by Jakob Johann Augustin (fl. 1775 - 1806), who renamed it Druckerei J. J. Augustin. The firm continued in the Augustin family for more than 200 years, and remains active today. Johannes Jakob Augustin Augustin was born in Glückstadt, Germany and apprenticed all aspects of the family business before perusing additional studies in art, music, and oriental languages in Innsbruck, Vienna, Paris, Leipzig, and London. He returned to Glückstadt in 1932 to work in the family press under his father, Heinrich Wilhelm Augustin (fl. 1905 - 1938). His name appears on the rolls of Jews who had their nationality annulled by the Nazi Regime in 1935. Unsurprisingly, in 1936, fleeing anti-Jewish persecution in Nazi Germany, Augustin moved to Havana, then in 1937 to New York. In New York he established the J. J. Augustin print shop at 125 E 23d St. After World War II, he reestablished connections with his family shop in Germany, and in 1950, he took over and ran remotely from his home in Long Island, New York. He died in 1984. Learn More...
