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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Advertising Archives, we are transported back to the 1940s in the United Kingdom, a time when advertising played a crucial role in supporting government initiatives. The image showcases an array of characters and logos associated with the Ministry of Food during that era. At first glance, our attention is immediately drawn to Dr. Carrot, a charismatic figure who embodies both health and patriotism. With his vibrant orange hue and leafy green top, he stands tall as a symbol of nutrition and resilience during wartime rationing. Surrounding Dr. Carrot are various other characters and logos representing different aspects of food production and consumption under government guidance. These visuals not only serve as eye-catching advertisements but also convey important messages about responsible eating habits, sustainable farming practices, and community support. This print serves as a reminder of how advertising can be used for more than just commercial purposes; it becomes a powerful tool for disseminating information and shaping public behavior during critical times in history. It reflects the British government's commitment to ensuring its citizens' well-being amidst challenging circumstances. As we admire this piece from The Advertising Archives collection, let us appreciate the ingenuity behind these 1940s posters – their ability to inspire unity, promote healthy living, and ultimately contribute to building a stronger nation through shared values around food security.
