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.

Frances Adams Halsted (1874 - November 16, 1951) was an American artist. Born in Boston as Frances Adams Clark, Halsted married Edward Bayard Halsted on September 16, 1913. Halsted is best known as the designer for the famed 'Columbia Calls' U.S. Army recruiting poster published during World War I. She also wrote the poem of the same title that appeared on the poster. She founded the Frances Adams House not long after World War I, a foundation with the goal of helping young people to become better citizens and creating more friendship between nations. Halsted had a contentions divorce from her husband in 1925. Very little else is known about her life. More by this mapmaker...
