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 print captures a moment in time at one of Lyons teashops in London circa 1935. The image features a waitress skillfully carrying a large tray filled with tea and food, embodying the essence of hospitality and service that was synonymous with the iconic teashop chain.
The waitress, dressed in a traditional uniform, exudes grace and efficiency as she navigates through the bustling teashop, catering to the needs of customers who have come to enjoy a cup of tea or a light meal. The sight of her balancing the heavy tray with ease is a testament to the dedication and hard work of the staff who helped make Lyons teashops such beloved establishments throughout London.
As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when afternoon tea was not just a drink but an experience - one that brought people together and provided moments of respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The presence of this waitress reminds us of the human touch that made dining out at Lyons so special, creating memories that would last for generations.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this snapshot from history, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty of the past but also the enduring legacy of institutions like Lyons teashops that continue to hold a place in our hearts today.
