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 evocative photograph captures the charm and simplicity of rural life in the 1930s in the picturesque village of Alcombe, located near Minehead and Watchet in Somerset, England. The image transports us back in time, as we observe the quaint cottages with thatched roofs huddled together, their whitewashed walls glowing in the soft light. The village green, dotted with trees and children playing, adds to the idyllic scene. In the background, the rolling hills and lush greenery stretch out, providing a breathtaking backdrop to this peaceful community. The villagers of Alcombe were primarily farmers and fishermen, who lived off the land and the sea. Their daily lives were shaped by the natural rhythms of the countryside and the changing seasons. The simple pleasures of community life were cherished, with neighbors coming together to help one another and celebrate local traditions. Despite the hardships and challenges that came with rural life, the people of Alcombe found joy and contentment in their close-knit community. This photograph is a testament to the resilience and strength of the human spirit, as well as a reminder of a simpler time in history when life moved at a slower pace. The Village of Alcombe, with its timeless beauty and rich history, continues to be a popular destination for visitors seeking a taste of rural England and a glimpse into the past.
