Digital Map Information

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 T. Moore (February 6, 1884 - April 19, 1977) was a California surveyor and civil engineer. Moore was born in Cherry Hill, Maryland. He relocated to California sometime before 1910. In 1911, he married Mable Noble in Monterey, California. He worked for many years with the Del Monte Properties Co. In a 1937 city directory of Pacific Grove, California, he is noted as the 'chief engineer' of the Del Monte Properties, the developer responsible for building Pebble Beach (the company was reincorporated as the Pebble Beach Corporation in 1977, later renamed the Pebble Beach Company). In 1952, Moore was made a Vice President of Del Monte Properties and Head of the Engineering Department. Based on newspaper reports of the local Pacific Grove Tribune and other local newspapers, Moore was deeply involved in the local community through the Masonic Lodge, school district, Chamber of Commerce, and the Monterey County Planning Commission.
