What this print is like
Matte paper of Japanese origin, 189 gsm and 94% opacity. Matte means it does not shine under a lamp and throws no reflection when you photograph it, and that 94% means nothing comes through: you see neither the back nor the wall behind. It is the only piece in the catalogue where the design goes on its own, with no seam, no pocket, no handle and no collar to cut it in half.
Read more about this poster
It comes unframed and in five sizes, from A4 at 21 × 29.7 cm up to 61 × 91 cm. The sizes are ordinary on purpose: you frame them with an off-the-shelf frame and there is nothing to order made to measure. Since it is not a garment, there is no colour to choose here: the paper is white and the only thing that changes between sizes is how much wall the drawing takes up.
If you frame it, keep the paper off the glass. A mount or a few spacer tabs leave an air gap, and that is what stops the ink from sticking to the glass after a few damp years. Rule of thumb for choosing a size: a print looks right from about one and a half times its diagonal, so the medium ones work for a hallway or above a desk and the big one needs a clear wall.

The drawing on «Reader, I married him»
An open book with the wedding ring laid on the right-hand page, on top of the lines that surround it. Reading and marrying, both things in the same drawing.
Where this drawing comes from
The ring sits on top of the text, covering lines. The sentence is said to the reader and not to the character: the novel has spent four hundred pages talking straight to you.
Charlotte Brontë, «Jane Eyre. An Autobiography» (Smith, Elder & Co., 1847), chapter XXXVIII, which opens with «Reader, I married him». The novel speaks to the reader in the second person from the very first chapter, and that line is where the device closes.
Sizes: measurements, where each one is made and what it costs
Measurements of the item in centimetres, as published by the factory itself.

The larger formats 12″×16″, 16″×20″, 24″×36″, 18″×24″ cost more because they cost the printer more: we would rather say so here and stock them than not have them.
«Made in» comes from the warehouse Printful declares for that exact size, not from an estimate of ours.
