New York Rapid Transit, 1939

A fantastic new York subway map from 1939, coinciding with the World’s Fair held that year. Text around the edges lists various points of interest. A lot of restoration work on this one to remove torn edges and worn fold lines, as seen in this before/after image.

Available as a 22″ by 22″ poster, with a 1″ white border on all sides.

Each poster is printed on-demand using fully archival, UltraChrome inks on Moab Lasal Matte, a beautiful, brilliant white, 230gsm (11 mil) alpha cellulose paper which is acid- and lignin-free. Each print is carefully inspected, wrapped in pH-neutral paper, then rolled and placed in a sturdy chipboard tube for shipping.
