Bird's Eye View: Portland 1876

Bird's Eye View: Portland 1876

from $42.00
[ABOUT THE MAP]: Joseph Warner, the map’s artist, only had two other aerial views ascribed to him: Fenton and Zeeland, Michigan. Little else is known about him. Published by J. J. Stoner in 1876, the original lithograph prints were funded by 300 pledges at $4 each (approximately $120 in 2022 dollars). [ABOUT THE PRINT] Please note that this is a poster reproduction, not an original antique map. We recommend full 24" x 36" Giclee prints ($103) for the best viewing, though we do offer one smaller size of the same type. A poster print on high quality paper is the most economical option. Full-size prints do not have an established scale as they are oblique, but at the southern waterfront 1" ~ 0.71 miles. [ABOUT THE PROCESS] Starting with public domain images, we digitally removed sepia tone, tears, and folds from the image to create a balanced composition in the spirit of the original. Downloads of originals are available at the Library of Congress or other map libraries.
