- What size is the poster?
- Sizes vary by listing, so check the dimensions on the option you pick. Measure your wall and frame before ordering, since vertical posters come in several standard formats.
- Does it come framed?
- No. It ships as a rolled or flat print on its own. You will need a frame, poster hanger or clips to put it up.
- Will the matte finish look dull?
- Matte paper softens reflections rather than adding shine. Colors look slightly flatter than on glossy paper, but the print stays readable under direct light.
- Can small street names be read?
- Fine labels are legible up close on larger sizes. On smaller sizes, treat the map as a graphic pattern rather than a readable street guide.
- How should I hang it without damaging the print?
- Frame it, or use a poster hanger that grips only the top and bottom edges. Avoid tape on the printed face, which can lift the matte coating.
