June 15, 2010, Savannah, GA - The Georgia Historical Society is pleased to announce print-on-demand services for five exquisite maps from the GHS collection. Prints of the maps, to their original specifications or custom-sized, can be ordered through the Great Frame Up in Bluffton, SC.  A portion of your purchase directly benefits the Georgia Historical Society.
 
Five maps are available for purchase for decorative use, including:

	A “new” map of North America with the West Indies divided according to the preliminary articles of peace signed at Versailles, published in 1783
	A map of northern Georgia compiled from the Cherokee land maps under the direction of Chief Topographical Engineer Captain W.E. Merrill and drafted by H. Riemann in 1864
	The historic 1908 Grand Prize of America Automobile racing road course that took place around Savannah and Chatham County, published in 1908
	The plan of the French and American siege of Savannah under command of the French general Count d’Estaing, printed circa 1779
	An 1820 map of the city of Savannah with an inset of the Savannah River from the city to the Tybee Light House

Each map has been captured in the highest possible resolution using a Cruse scanner, the same equipment used by the Smithsonian, the National Archives and the Vatican. Each print is custom processed and color-managed, then printed on cotton-based, fine art paper. Cost per print begins at $40 and varies depending on size and framing options.

A perfect acquisition for history buffs, teachers and fine art enthusiasts!
