US High Speed Rail - scroll down for updated map Poster

Quality was in line with the cost. I'm concerned about sun fade, because I plan to keep it facing out of a south window that gets several hours of sun daily. A good number of people go past that window daily. Not easy to tell whether the blank stock is paper or plastic; it's fairly-heavy card stock, no doubt with a surface carefully designed for computer printing, probably by inkjet. Inkjet printing can have very high quality; it's called "giclée" when used for creating artistic prints with close color control (color profiling) and more than four ink colors, on stock matched to the inks. Giclée prints can justifiably sell as fine art, and long-term stability is quite important. What I have is a modest-cost map of the USA, showing proposed high-speed rail lines nationwide. It's a labor of love, one could conclude. Imho, Edward Tufte would approve. It's quite well designed, and attractive. It could well outlast me :) (I'm approaching 80.) It came in a mailing tube that was unnecessarily long, perhaps twice what it needed to be, but also less likely to become mislaid in shipping. It was rolled "interleaved" with a generous amount of smooth kraft paper, so that °uncured" ink could not possibly. transfer, nor could unlikely abrasion affect the surface. The blank stock was curled, of course, but de-curling enough for casual placement in the window required no aggressive measures. IIrc, a good reverse roll was enough. (I didn't frame it.). Just fine. Colors typically were not fully saturated, but that, I'm sure, was the intent of the graphic artist. Saturated colors everywhere were inappropriate, and would have been garish. It's quite likely that color profiling was used completely, and more than four ink colors. Hexachrome®? I don't know, but afaik, that's for offset lithography.

Great, attention getting art. Came looking great and in great condition and packaing

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame. This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again. One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up. Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font. Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
