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
This stunning mounted specimen showcases the majestic beauty and anatomy of an adult King Penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus). Belonging to the Sphenisciformes order, specifically the Spheniscidae family, and classified under the class Aves and subclass Sauropsida, this flightless seabird is a true marvel of the animal kingdom. The King Penguin is easily recognizable by its orange and black coloration, with a distinctive orange bill and ear patches, and a long, grey body. The male and female penguins have similar plumage, but the males are generally larger, reaching up to 33 inches (84 cm) in height and weighing up to 33 pounds (15 kg). The King Penguin's striped bib, located under its chin, is a striking feature that helps distinguish it from other penguin species. This bib is not present in newly hatched chicks, but develops as they grow older. The penguin's head is large and round, with a small, flat crest running down its back. King Penguins are found primarily in the sub-Antarctic region, where they breed in large colonies. They spend most of their lives at sea, diving deep to catch fish and squid, and returning to land only to breed and molt. This mounted specimen provides a unique opportunity to study the intricate details of the King Penguin's anatomy, from its long legs and webbed feet to its powerful wings, which although not used for flying, aid in swimming and balance on land. A true testament to the natural world, this specimen is a must-see for anyone with an interest in wildlife and the wonders of the animal kingdom.
