Where could I purchase a window cling of the Milky Way

I have a Face Book friend who has a four year old grandson who has an enlarged heart, he loves the stars and the Milky Way. She is looking to purchase a window cling of the Milky Way so she can build a lightbox for it so he can see it anytime he wants to.

Thank you, Terry

As a last choice, download a hi-res copy and print it on the proper Avery stock.

UPDATE: Avery #18665 (You may have to print several sections)

Good Luck & let us know if it works.

If you like, I can send you a milky way shot I just took. I like it well enough that I just printed a 14 X 48 version. Staples did it for about $40.00. It is an option, and won't let you have the stars twinkle, but looks great on the wall. NC for onetime use for your child in need. PM me if you want to go forward.

That is very nice of you, the child is the grandson of a lady I only know through Facebook. She told me she would like to purchase a window cling which I take as meaning a transparency so she can put it on a light box for him.
Do you mean you are offering a print or a copy of the file she can have printed? Could you PM me with your email so she can get in touch with you?

You might try the St. Louis Science Center they have a very nice gift shop I bet they can be contacted on line.

We once had an educational supply store around here, I don't remember the name but they are a franchise. They had some nice ones available there also some of the more popular galaxy images like Andromeda and Sombrero and nebulas too. The store was targeted at teachers and home schoolers. You probably have a home schooling organization in your area, they would know.
