Shipping and Packaging Information

Currently, we use UPS for shipping within the United States. When you are checking out, you will be prompted to choose your delivery option, including the cost, before you submit your order.

Shipping charges are based on your delivery location and on the weight of your package. Each map and print in our catalog displays a "shipping weight" in the description. The shipping weight varies depending on the size of the map or print. Your shipping charge also includes complete insurance coverage for the map or print while in transit. The insurance is based on the value of the item

Your purchase will be securely packaged in the best way to suit the map or print. Some items are small enough to ship flat. These are securely packaged within a conservation quality paper, then inside a 'sandwich' of several layers of rigid cardboard, and finally placed in an outer cardboard mailing package. Larger items cannot always be shipped flat, because the package would be unwieldy and likely to be damaged in transit. In this case, the maps or prints are carefully rolled and encased in conservation tissue, then placed in a rigid cardboard mailing tube.

Whatever packaging needs are required, you can be sure we will handle your package in the best way for the item purchased. We have ten years experience shipping antique maps and prints, and enjoy a reputation for extremely careful and secure packaging of your valuable antique art.

Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about your shipping, or any special requirements.
