A1 Poster (84.1 x 59.4cm, 33.1" x 23.4" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this aerial photograph, the HMS Broadsword (F88) of the Royal Navy is anchored off the coast of Plymouth, Devon, England, in July 1990. The Type 22 frigate, commissioned in 1979, is depicted in all its glory as it cuts through the tranquil waters of the English Channel. The HMS Broadsword was one of the most advanced frigates of its time, designed for both anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare. The image captures the intricate details of the ship's sleek silhouette, with its distinctive white superstructure and dark hull. The helicopter pad on the rear of the vessel is visible, along with several small boats bobbing in the water. The surrounding sea is a beautiful shade of turquoise, reflecting the clear blue sky above. The HMS Broadsword served the Royal Navy with distinction for over a decade before being sold to the Brazilian Navy in 1995. This photograph is a testament to the ship's impressive design and capabilities, as well as the beauty and power of the sea. The image is part of the extensive Aerofilms Collection held by Historic England Archive, a valuable resource for researchers and historians studying maritime history and military technology. The photograph is not to be used for commercial purposes and is protected by copyright.
