A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. 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
Hang on to your steering wheels and your beer bottles, folks! This hilarious 20th-century comic postcard captures the essence of a carefree and boisterous road trip through the rural countryside. The man in the driver's seat, with a mischievous grin on his face, seems to be enjoying every moment of his open-top car ride, even as he reaches for another bottle of beer. His passengers in the backseat appear to be just as amused, with one of them holding a gallon jug of petrol, perhaps to ensure they don't run out on this speedy adventure. The scene is set against a scenic country lane, with trees lining the road and the sun casting long shadows on the ground. The man's car, with its vintage design and the bottles precariously balanced on the dashboard, adds to the playful and whimsical atmosphere. This postcard, reminiscent of the iconic British humour of Donald McGill, is a fun and light-hearted reminder of simpler times and the joy of sharing a ride with good friends and a good drink. So, let's raise a bottle to the spirit of adventure and the thrill of the open road!
