What is a Litograph?
HOW WE MAKE ART FROM BOOKS
First, we take the words of a classic or contemporary book. It could also be a poem, play, or screenplay.
Next, we work with top artists and illustrators to create a beautiful design inspired by those words.
Then we print the words of the book in the shape of the design. You can actually read the book on the posters, t-shirts, blankets, scarves, and more!

What Our Customers Are Saying
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
My t-shirt is the wrong size — can I exchange it?
Yes, we’d be happy to send you a replacement. Please follow the instructions on our returns and exchanges page, and we’ll get started on a replacement for you.
What is your refund policy?
At Litographs, we have a 100% satisfaction guarantee - if you don’t love your Litograph, just follow the instructions on our returns and exchanges page and we’ll issue you a refund. We're happy to accept a return for any reason on t-shirts, scarves, blankets, pillows, puzzles, hoodies, shower curtains, tote bags, tattoo packs, and our standard sized posters. Unfortunately, due to the printing process for oversized posters (larger than 24x36), all sales are final at the time of purchase.
How long does each product take to produce?
Each Litographs product is custom-made in the United States. Turnaround time is typically less than one week for most products, though some products may take longer in late November and December. Turnaround time for posters is typically 1-2 weeks.
The "Estimated Ship Date" posted above the add to cart button on each product page is the most up-to-date. This is the date we expect to finish production and ship the product -- delivery times after shipment vary depending on the destination.
How are the t-shirts printed?
Litographs t-shirts are printed using a process called dye sublimation. Of all the printing methods we've tested, dye sublimation stands out for its resolution, comfort, and durability.
Our shirts are made using white t-shirts produced specifically for dye sublimation. Our tees are made with high-quality, 100% spun polyester to deliver the look and feel of cotton with the benefits of polyester, like superior sweat wicking.
First, the design is printed onto heat-resistant paper. The paper is then arranged on a blank t-shirt and fed into a large heat press. As the press heats up to 350 degrees, the pigments vaporize and quickly bond with the t-shirt fibers.
The key feature of dye sublimated clothing is that the design is not printed on top of the garment. Rather, the design is permanently dyed into the threads of the shirt itself, ensuring that it will never fade.
Why are there blank spaces on my shirt?
Expect to see a small number of white streaks, especially around the underarm area. These are unavoidable, and a standard feature of dye-sublimated t-shirts. Each is truly handmade and one of a kind.
Can I read the entire book on my Litograph?
For nearly every book that we offer, we have a poster that fits the entire text. Because some books are longer than others, the size of the full-text poster can vary. Please check the product page for the word count on each poster.
Though we do include as many words as possible on each shirt, it’s less precise than our posters. We print our shirts using a transfer sheet that is slightly larger than the shirt, so some of the text on the sides is cut off. Since the sheets themselves are larger than the t-shirts, there will always be some portions of the book that don't make it onto the shirts. The average Litographs t-shirt contains approximately 40,000 words (about the length of a short novel).
The average Litographs tote bag contains approximately 20,000 words (about the length our 18x24 posters contain).
Each Litographs throw blanket contains approximately 20,000 words.
