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.

Digital orders are delivered as ZIP files, an industry standard file compression protocol that any computer should be able to unpack.

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
William Henry 'Haskell' Coffin (October 21, 1878 - May 12, 1941) was an American artist and painter. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, his family moved to Washington, D.C. while he was still an infant. He studied art at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C., before heading overseas to Paris to study under Paul Laurens, who was renowned as one of the greatest teachers of art at the time. After returning from Europe, Coffin lived in New York City, where he began a successful career as a commercial artist in advertising. His work graced the covers of The Redbook and Cosmopolitan and appeared on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post thirty-four times. Coffin gained a reputation as a portraitist, particularly for portraits of beautiful women. His work 'glorified the American girl', with a particular emphasis placed on the show girl. His subjects were often depicted making small, elegant gestures, accompanied by graceful expressions. Coffin was married and divorced twice, with three children from his first marriage. He was admitted to a hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida, in April 1941 to treat a mental illness, said to be 'melancholia', and he was still in the hospital for treatment when he leaped to his death from his third-floor room.
