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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Monte Fresco, we are transported back to December 1967 at Highbury Stadium. The image showcases the Sheffield Wednesday players huddled together on the sideline during their match against Arsenal. However, what makes this moment truly remarkable is the heavy snowfall that envelops the stadium. As a blizzard blankets the pitch, these dedicated athletes stand united in their determination despite adverse weather conditions. Their faces reveal a mix of concentration and resilience as they strategize and await further instructions from their manager. Each player's breath hangs in the freezing air, creating an ethereal mist around them. The abandoned match after only 47 minutes due to the relentless snowfall adds an element of intrigue to this snapshot frozen in time. It serves as a testament to Mother Nature's unpredictable influence on sporting events and highlights both the challenges faced by footballers and their unwavering commitment to their craft. This photograph not only captures a significant moment in football history but also encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie among teammates who brave extreme elements together. As we gaze upon this vintage scene, we are reminded of how sports can transcend mere competition and become a symbol of human perseverance even amidst nature's whimsical fury.
