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
Ella Karolyn Ries (fl. c. 1930 - 1935) was a western illustrator and author who lived in Portland, Oregon, and was known professionally by the name E. Karolyn Ries. Ries gained fame through her children's stories and illustrations, which were eventually published internationally. In 1931 Ries operated her own art studios and held regular exhibitions of her and other artists' work. In 1932 Ries was named the director of the advertising and fashion art program at the Ellison White Conservatory. She was appointed the art director of the new public market in Portland in December 1933. She completed 'elaborate illustrations' to announce the market's opening. Ries also created children's illustrations that were published in The Oregonian beginning about 1928. In 1935 she changed jobs and accepted the position of art director for the Mary Pentland Advertising Agency and production manager for the agency's Seattle and Portland offices. By 1940 she and her husband Harris Van Alstyne Fleming, had moved to Los Angeles, California, where Ries was registered to vote. Her husband died in 1988, but we have not found any information concerning Ries' birth or death. More by this mapmaker...
