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
Title: "The Great Silk Undies Debate" - A 20th Century Comic Postcard This delightful comic postcard, dated from the 20th century, captures the playful banter and light-hearted bickering between a frumpish middle-aged couple as they stand before an array of expensive, real silk undies at a high-end underwear shop. The man, with a smirk on his face, points to a pair of red silk knickers, while the woman, looking downcast and plump, shakes her head in disagreement. Her expression is one of annoyance and determination, as if she's trying to make up her mind about whether or not to splurge on the luxurious and pricey undergarments. The scene is set in a dimly lit shop, with the assistant, dressed in an apron and a long red coat, looking amused at the couple's disagreement. The textiles and materials of the silk undies are displayed in all their glory, with the rich and lustrous texture adding to the allure of the scene. The couple, both overweight and obese, are depicted in a humorous and fun way, with their round faces and puffy bodies adding to the overall comical effect. The postcard, published by the renowned British company, Donald McGill, is a testament to the company's ability to capture the essence of everyday life and human relationships with a touch of humor and wit. The cartoon-like illustrations and clever captions have made these postcards a beloved part of British popular culture, and this particular postcard is a prime example of their unique style and charm.
