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.

Irving Trust (1851 - 1988) was an American investment bank based in New York City and was founded in 1851 as the Irving Bank of the City of New York. At that time in U.S. history, a federal currency did not exist, which meant that individual banks issued their own paper certificates, and, as is the case with most endeavors in human society, those banks with the most appealing names and most attractive certificates were the most widely used. Irving Bank was named after Washington Irving, and American diplomat, lawyer, and author who became recognized as America's first man of letters. Irving Bank was converted from a state bank to a bank chartered under the National Bank Act of 1863 in June 1865, and became the Irving National Bank of New York. After a merger in 1907, the bank became the Irving National Exchange Bank of New York, and subsequently changed its name to the Irving National Bank in 1912. The Irving National Bank merged with the Columbia Trust Company in 1922, which created the Irving Bank and Trust Company. Another merger in 1926 with the American Exchange-Pacific Bank led to the company being renamed the American Exchange Irving Trust Company. In 1929, the bank underwent its final name change to the Irving Trust Company, the name under which it operated until 1989. Irving Trust ceased to exist on October 7, 1988, after the board signed an agreement to merge with the Bank of New York, which ended a yearlong battle between the two as the Bank of New York tried to engineer a hostile takeover.
