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.

Cornelia Cunningham Huffer (December 2, 1903 - March 7, 1978) was an American painter, illustrator, and educator. Cunningham was born in Savannah, Georgia. Cunningham was born of a prominent Savannah family, the granddaughter of the Confederate officer Major John Cunningham. She studied art at the Woman's Art School at Cooper Union, the Grand Central School of Art, and the National Academy of Design, all in New York City. She also attended the Berkshire Summer School of Art in Massachusetts. She was a member of several pioneering organizations, including the National League of American Pen Women, the Southern States Art League, the Association of Georgia Artists, the Studio Club of Atlanta, and the Atlanta Woman's Club. On graduating, she relocated to Atlanta to pursue painting and book illustration. There, she met and married James Teller Schoolcraft Jr. (1900 - 1948) in 1935, prompting her to relocate to Dover, New Hampshire. There she taught art at the University of New Hampshire, Durham, from 1945 - 1946. Schoolcraft died in 1948, two years after which she married Ralph Huffer (1896 - 1974). She died in Dover, New Hampshire. More by this mapmaker...
Wymberley Wormsloe De Renne (July 27, 1891 - April 1, 1966) was a Georgia preservationist and businessman from a prosperous southern family with roots in the antebellum era. De Renne was born in Biarritz, France, but inherited the famous Wormsloe Plantation, located near Savannah and renowned worldwide for its striking avenue of ancient oak trees. When De Renne inherited the plantation, it had largely fallen into disuse, but he invested significantly in its renewal and renovation. Unfortunately, business reversals cost him much of his fortune, and in 1927, he was forced to open Wormsloe to the public as 'Wormsloe Gardens'. He turned the plantation over to his sister, Elfrida De Renne Barrow, in 1938, relocating to Athens, Georgia, to continue the work on his father's collection of Georgia manuscripts and documents. In that year, he donated his family library, the 'Georgia Library', to the University of Georgia's collection. When he died in Savannah, age 74, he was interred in the family vault in Savannah's Bonaventure Cemetery. Learn More...
