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
This poignant photograph captures a memorial service held in Pembroke Dockyard, West Wales, in the late 1910s, in honor of the brave men lost on the minesweeper HMS Jason. The date on the postcard may be incorrect, but the solemn occasion remains etched in history. The HMS Jason was sunk by a German U-boat off the coast of Coll Island, Scotland, in April 1917 during the First World War. The image shows a group of mourners, including local men in military uniform, gathered around a tree-lined memorial site. A military band, dressed in brass uniforms and playing somber music, adds to the mournful atmosphere. Sailors, some with tears in their eyes, stand at attention, paying their respects to their fallen comrades. The trees, standing tall and proud against the backdrop of the dockyard, symbolize the enduring strength and resilience of nature, even in the face of war. This poignant scene serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the armed forces during the First World War. The memorial service in Pembroke Dockyard was a testament to the community's support and appreciation for those who gave their lives in defense of their country.
