DC Transit Map Shower Curtain

DC Transit Map Shower CurtainI use command hooks to hang this on the wall in my Social Studies classroom. My students love it and love figuring out ways they would get around D.C.

It looks like the picture, and looks great in the bathroom! Any guest who sees it always compliments me about it.

Love it, my daughter (5 yrs old) loves maps, we live in the DC area she can tell you which line you need to take to get to different stops....so much more interesting than a plan shower curtain!

Overall, this is an okay recreation of the DC metro system map. But upon close examination, it's clear there wasn't a huge amount of effort put towards authenticity. Any claim of the design being 'officially licensed' from WMATA seems extremely dubious to me.

For instance, the typeface used for the original graphic is Helvetica, while this version appears to use Arial (or something similar to it—many lowercase t's look more like Helvetica t's than Arial t's, but others don't). Although they're pretty similar fonts, they're not the same. I can't fathom why someone would bother recreating the whole map only to then use the wrong font. There's also a typo ('Foggy Bottom-GMU' instead of 'GWU') which obviously does not appear on the original map.

Oh well; it's just a shower curtain. And no one else seems to have noticed the differences anyway.

The quality is great if you are expecting a shower curtain liner. I use this to line a cloth shower curtain, so I'm happy with it. This is probably too thin to use unlined on its own.
