Printed to order, close to home. Nothing is printed until you order it, so there's no unsold stock to throw away.

Posters are printed on certified paper from responsibly managed forests, and canvases are stretched over certified wood.

Real places as they were more than a century ago. Each heritage print is a hand-coloured photochrom from the 1890s, from the Library of Congress collection, printed as it is — not redrawn — with the place and date in the name band. They show each place as it looked then, so some things will have changed since. See the heritage prints.
