You simply peel off the backing and position it on any non porous surface. It is low tack that is removable, re-positionable and reusable. A detailed guide to hanging our wallpaper can be found at 'Wallpaper - Hints & Tips'.

Q. My Vintage Map doesn't match up/has gaps
A. The Vintage mapping we use is made from scans of the original sheets that have been digitally stitched together. These sheets were never designed to be joined together and differences in alignment, colour, contrast and map detail between adjoining sheets often occurs. These imperfections are considered part of the charm of vintage mapping!
