What Is On This Poster

8 facts

The facts this poster carries, so you can match it to what your kid is asking about before you buy.

Non-avian dinosaurs died out about 66 million years ago.
Birds are living dinosaurs.
Tyrannosaurus rex lived closer in time to us than to Stegosaurus.
Dinosaurs first appeared about 230 to 245 million years ago, in the Triassic.
Richard Owen coined the word dinosaur in 1842. It is usually translated "terrible lizard", but Owen meant "fearfully great lizard".
Brachiosaurus stood about 12 meters (40 feet) tall, more than twice as tall as a giraffe.
Velociraptor weighed about as much as a big turkey, but its long tail made it about 1.8 meters from nose to tail.
T. rex had about 60 teeth, some up to 20 centimeters (8 inches) long.

Fits These Frames

in-frame-18x24The sample 18x24 in a standard 18x24 frame from a big-box store, the frame's brand visible on the back.

18 x 24 Inches

Fits a standard 18x24 frame, the usual size for art prints, sold at big-box stores.

Printed sizes can run a little over, so the design keeps everything that matters clear of the edge and the frame hides nothing.

in-frame-24x36The sample 24x36 in a standard 24x36 poster frame, on a wall, with a door or chair for scale.

24 x 36 Inches

The most common poster size in the US, and the one budget frames are made for. Readable from across a room.

The same margin rule: nothing important sits near the edge.

189 gsm Matte Paper

Thick, smooth and glare-free. Printful, who prints it, calls it museum-quality paper.

Ink

Epson UltraChrome GS3

Pigment ink Printful lists as GREENGUARD Gold certified. Deep blacks, which a night sky needs.
