“Beautiful! The print exceeded my expectations. I had it framed locally, and the framer commented on the high quality of the paper. Well packaged to prevent damage. Will shop with this vendor again.”

The Story Behind the Print
Hinrich Bruns's U.S. Patent 668,972, issued in 1901, documents a ship's compass. The approved Patent Office sheet preserves its technical figures, labels, signatures, and documentary arrangement.
This Archive Print Co. edition retains the approved patent composition and measured border on a warm archival-paper ground. No part of the drawing is cropped or stretched.
Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. Available as a print or in the Slimwood Silver, Slimwood Gold, and Satin Black frame finishes.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.
About the Frame
Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with clear acrylic glazing, dry-mounted artwork, a kraft paper dust cover, and hanging wire. Each piece arrives ready to hang. No mat. Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.
The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.

“We bought the American flamingo framed print. I absolutely love it! Justin was super helpful with the shipping-we live in Hong Kong and these things and I was worried the glass etc may be damaged in shipping-but it arrived in perfect condition. Very happy customer, can highly recommend.”
“This is a beautifully reproduced Audubon print. It has depth of color and fabulous detail. The additional detail in the background makes it look like a real print and not like a reproduction. I've seen many original Audubon prints at Wilson Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and this reproduction is extraordinary.”
