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
"This evocative photograph captures the Canine Camp, a terraced colony of dug-outs specially designed for French ambulance dogs during World War I. The image, taken in December 1915, showcases the dedication and crucial role these animals played in the war effort. The Canine Camp was a vital part of the French military infrastructure, with dogs being extensively used as scouts, sentry, and ambulance support. These dogs were imported from various countries, including Belgium and Germany, to serve alongside the French troops. The dug-outs, or outs, in this colony were designed to provide the dogs with a comfortable and secure living environment. The terraced design allowed for efficient use of space and ensured that each dog had access to its own individual shelter. The dogs were an essential component of the French military strategy, with their keen senses and agility enabling them to detect enemy movements and locate wounded soldiers in the battlefield. Their role as ambulance dogs was equally important, as they were trained to find and retrieve medical supplies and help transport the injured to safety. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the significant contribution made by animals in war, particularly during the First World War. The Canine Camp stands as a testament to the enduring bond between humans and animals, and the selfless service they have provided throughout history." Image.
