A patent drawing was made to be read rather than admired. Each one had to explain a machine to an examiner who had never seen it, figure by figure and line by line, and that plainness is exactly why it works on a wall. Our patent canvas prints take those original drawings and put them on canvas, at a size where the fine line work can be read from across the room.

Why Canvas For A Patent Drawing

There is no glass on a canvas to catch a window or an overhead light, so the hatching and the small reference numerals stay legible from any angle. That makes canvas the natural choice for a garage, a workshop, a game room or a home office: rooms with strong light, where a framed print would spend half the day reflecting it.

What We Carry

More than a hundred subjects, grouped roughly the way people buy them. Firearms and lever-action rifles. Motorcycles, engines and vintage cars. Sports, from basketballs and baseball gloves to golf drivers, irons and bags. Kitchen pieces such as waffle irons, coffee grinders, percolators, French presses and tea kettles. Workshop tools: drills, wrenches, screwdrivers, pocket knives. Cameras and movie cameras, pianos and guitars, aircraft and spacecraft, bridges and surveying instruments. Toys and games, from playing cards and dice to building bricks and game consoles.

Sets And Series

Several subjects come as pairs or sets, the same machine across two or three patents filed years apart. Hung in a row, they read as a timeline of one idea being improved, which tends to hold attention longer than a single drawing. A set also fills a long wall above a workbench or a sofa without needing one oversized piece.

Who They Are For

A patent canvas is bought for a person rather than a room. The golfer, the coffee obsessive, the machinist, the collector who still keeps the original toys in a box upstairs. They suit a retirement, a new office or a graduation into a trade, and they are a sensible answer for the person who already owns every tool in the drawing.

How They Are Made

Each canvas is a 1-inch gallery wrap that arrives ready to hang, without nails or tools. Everything is printed and finished to order in our family-owned shop in the USA. For the same drawings in a frame, browse the rest of our patent print wall art.
