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
A Hilarious Scene at the Seaside: A 20th Century Comic Postcard This charming and comically intriguing postcard, hailing from the 20th century, invites us to join a delightful moment at the seaside. The image features a plump woman, her red swimsuit accentuating her ample figure, and a man, both surprised and perplexed, as they attempt to repair a boat with an oversized paintbrush and a noticeably small paint tin. The woman, with a determined expression on her face, seems to be in charge, while the man looks on, his hands on his hips, as if contemplating the situation. The boat, which appears to be stuck in the sand, adds to the humor of the scene, as does the double entendre of the word "repair" in the title. The quirky, British humor of this postcard is further emphasized by the presence of a second couple, who can be seen in the background, hiring boats and donning their bathing caps. The man in this pair seems to be enjoying a good laugh at the expense of the first couple's predicament. This comic postcard, reminiscent of the works of Donald McGill, is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, filled with humor, fun, and a touch of the unexpected. The playful use of language, the suggestive imagery, and the clever composition all come together to create a truly memorable and amusing piece of art.
