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 evocative photograph, Ron Farmer, a legendary figure in Coventry City Football Club's history, poses confidently for the cameras during a photocall in the late 1960s. Farmer, who was born in Coventry in 1935, joined the Sky Blues as a player in 1953 and went on to make over 300 appearances for the club over the next decade. A versatile player, Farmer could operate effectively in various positions across the midfield, and his tenacity, skill, and vision on the pitch earned him the admiration of Coventry City fans. He was a key member of the team that reached the FA Cup Final in 1961, where they faced Manchester City. Although Coventry City lost the match, Farmer's performance was widely praised, and he was named in the FA Cup Team of the Year. After retiring from professional football in 1965, Farmer continued his association with Coventry City as a coach and then manager. He took charge of the team in 1973, leading them to promotion to the First Division in 1974, the club's first top-flight appearance since the 1960s. Farmer's tenure as manager saw Coventry City establish themselves as a force in English football, with the team reaching the FA Cup Final again in 1987 and finishing as runners-up in the League Cup in 1986 and 1987. This photograph captures Farmer in his prime, both as a player and as a leader, and serves as a reminder of his significant contribution to Coventry City Football Club's history. The image is a valuable addition to the club's archives, preserving the memory of a much-loved figure for future generations of fans.
