“This was a custom order, and it turned out SPECTACULAR. It was a gift for a friend, who loved it. I am delighted with the quality of the paper and detail of the map. Paola is a pleasure to work with, and everything was done well before expected. Careful packaging, speedy shipping--could not ask for more. I will be ordering again soon.”

The Story Behind the Print
Charles B. Darrow’s U.S. Patent 2026082, granted December 31, 1935, documents a property-trading board game apparatus organized around a square playing field, marked spaces, title cards, money, and movable pieces.
The large plan view and neatly arrayed cards, tokens, and playing pieces give the sheet the graphic clarity of a period game-room broadside. This restored edition preserves the original patent arrangement in crisp black linework on cool, timeworn rag paper within the collection’s restrained black double rule.
Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. A natural piece for game rooms, libraries, offices, and collections of American popular culture.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.

Customer notes
From our collectors
“I purchased this map in the 48x36 size. The print is exactly as described and shown. I had it framed at my local frame shop and just picked it up a few days ago. The shop owner answered all my questions in a flash. If ever I should need another map...I know where to go!”
“This was a gift for my brother and he absolutely loves it, the print is beautiful! Justin was wonderful to work with - we asked to exchange the first print we ordered because we decided we wanted the framed version, and he was so accommodating and made the process super easy. Fantastic experience!”
