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.
Delivery
Once you purchase our digital scan service, you will receive a download link via email - usually within seconds. Digital orders are delivered as ZIP files, an industry standard file compression protocol that any computer should be able to unpack. Some of our files are very large, and can take some time to download. Most files are saved into your computer's 'Downloads' folder. All delivery is electronic. No physical product is shipped.

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
Henry Emil Salloch (December 31, 1908 - August 1985) was a German-American artist and graphic designer. Born Heinz Emil Salloch in Berlin, Germany, Salloch studied art at the Muthesiushochschule, Kiel. In 1929, he returned to Berlin to teach art. After the rise of National Socialism and Adolf Hitler, Salloch refused to join the Nazi Party. In defiance of party edicts, he invited Jewish pupils to a school Christmas Party and refused to use the Nazi newspaper Völkischer Beobachter in his class. This caught the attention of the Gestapo. After being informed by his landlady that the Gestapo had been asking about him, Salloch fled the country and ended up in Cuba before immigrating to the United States in 1937. He spent the late 1930s traveling up the U.S. East Coast from Florida to New York, where he lived in Montauk for a while. The 1940 U.S. Census notes Salloch as living as a bachelor in New York City. Salloch married Erika Salloch, a Jewish refugee and professor of German at Washington College, Chestertown, Maryland. Today, the Erika and Henry Salloch Prize is given by the Department of Modern Languages at Washington College, to the student whose achievement and personal commitment have contributed to the understanding of other cultures.
