Earthworms are such fascinating creatures, not to mention being a gardener's best friend! This is a 12" x 18" poster of a few different types of earthworms along with a bit of anatomy. It has been professionally printed onto lovely matte 100 lb card stock and initialed and dated on the reverse. The generous top and bottom margins are perfect for framing using a wooden poster hanger (which also makes it very easy to change out posters every now and then). This listing does NOT include the wooden, magnetic poster hanger used in the photo. Your poster will be carefully packaged in a kraft tube for mailing. ★★ Frame not included ★★ I do my best to portray colors accurately, however different monitors (and cameras) will vary in how they display colors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER AND GET 10% OFF: https://twigandmoth.myflodesk.com/newsletter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ***Purchase does not transfer copyright.
