The Manky Map, a Slang Map of Ireland
This is the A3 print of the great fun Vernacular and Slang Ireland map, a word art map made up of everything we say that other countries don't. I made it initially based on things I'd grown up hearing my dad say, his language was colourful to say the least. Until I was about 12 I thought everyone said 'bollox' when they sneezed. It's a fun Irish poster to send off to anyone Irish who is living abroad.
It is sold rolled in a tube so will post safely anywhere in the world making the recipient smile as well as fondly remembering their time in Ireland. I can enclose a note with it if you want it posted off directly. It has been professionally printed onto Antique white 300g poster card. Original Irish word art by Susan Brambell, The Word Bird.
Framing notes:- The A3 is 420mm x 297 cm. It will fit into any IKEA frame or similar that has an opening of 30x40cm. If you choose one without a mount so that the whole glass is 30 x 40 you will need to trim a little off the top and bottom but there is room on the print to do that without affecting the design. If you choose one that has a mount in it and the mount opening is 30 x 40 you won't need to trim.
There are a few IKEA frames to choose from but these are the links to the Ribba ones
IKEA Ribba 30 x 40 cm https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/p/ribba-frame-black-30378454/ if you trim the top and bottom.
IKEA Ribba 40 x 50cm frame with a mount opening of 29cm x 39 cm without trimming, you can just tape it behind the mount.
