Materials
Fine Art Print: pigment giclée printing on heavyweight 330 gsm (17 mil), 100% cotton Hot Press paper, on regularly calibrated giclée printers. The paper is acid-free and archival-grade, with a smooth matte surface and the high color gamut and black density that let a dark ground and fine linework keep their depth. Supplied unframed, with no added white margin, ready for your own frame.
Framed Fine Art Print: the same cotton fine art paper in a 1.25 inch solid wood frame. A white, acid-free, 4-ply mat with a 45-degree bevel and optical-grade, shatter-resistant clear acrylic (safer to ship than glass) are included. The print is mounted to foam core for a flat presentation, with a kraft paper dust cover and installed hanging wire on the back.
Glossy Metal Print: the image is transferred by dye sublimation into polymer-coated aluminum with a glossy white base. The 1.14 mm panel has a scratch- and water-resistant surface, with a hidden inset mount that positions it about 3/4 inch off the wall. Display indoors, away from direct sunlight.
Digital Download: a high-resolution JPEG for personal, non-commercial use. No physical paper, frame, or metal panel is included.
Dimensions
Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches.
Framed Fine Art Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches, measured across the mat and acrylic area inside the frame. The mat sits within that area, so the visible image is about 6 x 8, 12 x 16, or 18 x 24 inches. The outside frame is larger than the listed size.
Glossy Metal Print: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, and 24 x 30 inches. During sublimation, 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the artwork may be cropped, so the printed edge can differ slightly from the preview.
Digital Download: a 7200 x 9000 pixel JPEG at 300 dpi for 24 x 30 inch printing. A digital add-on instead matches the selected physical size: 8 x 10, 16 x 20, or 24 x 30 inches at 300 dpi.
Made like something you keep.
The field itself
This is Ely's own layout, the way its runways run and the taxiways thread between them, composed into a print you will want to look at every day. Not a stock template with a new name on it.
Museum-quality cotton paper
Heavyweight 330 gsm, 100% cotton Hot Press paper, acid-free and archival-grade. Its high color gamut and black density give the runways real depth, and pigment inks keep the fine detail crisp on a smooth matte surface.
Solid wood framing or glossy metal
Frame it in 1.25 inch solid wood, black, white or natural oak, with the white beveled mat, optical-grade clear acrylic and hanging wire included. Or choose glossy metal: dye sublimation into aluminum, floated about 3/4 inch off the wall on a hidden mount.

Ely Municipal Airport Runway Diagram Print
Ely Municipal (ELO) has one runway, 12/30, and the print hands it the entire page. The strip enters near the upper left at the 12 threshold and runs unbroken to the lower right, where the 30 numerals sit at the far end. Nothing competes with it. A small cluster of apron and taxiway shapes gathers above the 12 end, pale grey against the dark pavement, and after that the sheet is open space. This is what a one runway field looks like when it is composed honestly: a line with a slope, and room to breathe.
The numbers behind that line are 5,596 ft by 100 ft, asphalt. Elevation 1456 ft and the coordinates are set in small type under the ELO wordmark, so the identifier reads first and the data holds its place quietly beneath. A single diagonal is a forgiving thing to hang. It gives a wall a direction without asking for a large frame or a busy spot, and it reads clearly from across a room.
The city of Ely owns the airport, which covers 560 acres. Summer airline service ran from 1995 through 2002, flown by Mesaba Airlines operating as Northwest Airlink on a once daily Saab 340. In 2017 there were 14 based aircraft here, 13 single-engine and 1 multi-engine. Those are modest figures, and the artwork does not pretend otherwise. The Hibbing print can hang beside this one.
Ely (ELO) print, common questions
How many runways does Ely Municipal have, and how long is the runway?
One runway, designated 12/30. It measures 5,596 ft long by 100 ft wide with an asphalt surface, and it is the single shape the print is built around.
What is the field elevation at ELO?
1456 ft. That figure is printed on the artwork itself, below the city line, along with the coordinates.
What does ELO stand for?
ELO is the three-letter identifier for Ely Municipal Airport in Ely, Minnesota. The identifier is what appears large on the print; the ICAO form is not used in the layout.
How accurate is the diagram to the published layout?
The geometry follows published runway data for ELO: one runway, 12/30, 5,596 ft by 100 ft, asphalt, with the apron shapes near the 12 end. It is artwork rather than a navigation document, so fine details may be simplified or omitted. Pavement markings and minor edge detail are the usual examples.
What formats can I get this ELO artwork in?
Four. Choose the Fine Art Print if you want it on paper and plan to frame it yourself. The Framed Fine Art Print arrives already in its frame. A Glossy Metal Print puts that long 12/30 diagonal on a harder, brighter surface. The Digital Download is the file by itself, nothing physical. Several sizes are offered, and the composition holds at each one because it is essentially a single line. Physical versions are made to order in the colorway you choose.
Would this work as a gift?
It works well for anyone with a reason to remember Ely Municipal: a first solo, a hangar, a summer spent at the field. Because the identifier ELO sits large and the runway reads as one clean diagonal, the meaning lands immediately for the right person and still looks like a good piece of design to everyone else.
