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 aftermath of a devastating fire that ravaged a room during the dark days of World War II. The image, taken by the London Fire Brigade in 1943, offers a poignant glimpse into the destruction wrought by the flames during the war. The once-pristine interior is now a charred and smoky scene, with the remnants of furniture and belongings reduced to ashes. The walls are blackened, and the windows are shattered, allowing the outside world to peer in at the devastation. The London Fire Brigade, a vital service during wartime, worked tirelessly to extinguish the flames and prevent further damage. The brave firefighters risked their lives to save what they could and limit the spread of the fire. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of the destructive power of fire and the importance of the fire service during times of crisis. The 1940s, a decade marked by the Second World War, saw London endure numerous air raids and fires. The city was a constant target for the enemy, and the London Fire Brigade was at the forefront of the response efforts. This photograph, taken in the midst of the war, offers a poignant snapshot of the aftermath of one such incident. The damaged room, with its shattered remnants and pungent smoke, stands as a testament to the resilience of those who lived through the war. Despite the destruction, life went on, and the London Fire Brigade continued to protect the city and its people from the dangers of fire. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the past and the crucial role that fire services play in our communities, then and now.
