FAQ

Short answers to the questions we get most often. If yours isn’t here, write to hello@coffeeposters.com.

Do I get a physical print?

No. Coffee Posters is a digital archive. You receive a high-resolution JPEG that you print yourself or via a local print shop. The detail page for each piece lists the recommended sizes and print specifications.

Why not just download these from Wikipedia for free?

You can. The underlying works are public domain; we don’t own them and we don’t pretend to. What you pay for is the restoration (color balance, scan-edge cleanup), the print preparation (three pre-cropped sizes, correct color profile, sensible filenames), the historical write-up (artist, year, printer, original size, holding institution, the framing the work belongs to), and the curation (a coherent archive rather than a scattered Wikimedia search).

Can I print these at any size?

Each piece’s detail page lists the three sizes we recommend for it, based on the source resolution and how the composition reads at scale. Going beyond the recommended maximum is technically possible; we’d rather you didn’t.

Can I use these in my café, roastery, or restaurant?

Yes. Personal and commercial display use is permitted — your home, your café, your roastery, your hotel lobby. What’s not permitted is reselling the file itself or claiming authorship.

Can I get a refund?

Digital downloads are non-refundable except for technical failure (corrupted file, broken download link). Watermarked previews are available before purchase so the visual decision is yours to make before paying.

Do you ship internationally?

There’s nothing to ship. Files are delivered by email link.

How do free samples work?

We send two free pieces to anyone who asks. Same files we sell. You confirm your email address via a verification link (one extra click), then you get the download links. We add you to a low-frequency email list — no more than four messages per month, and one-click unsubscribe.

Are the artists paid?

The artists in this archive have been dead for between 80 and 250 years. The institutional holders (Wellcome, Museu Paulista, etc.) released the digital files into public domain or under open licenses; we credit them on every piece.
