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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a historic FA Cup Third Round replay match at the City Ground in January 1973. As we gaze upon the image, we are immediately drawn to the dense fog that engulfs the stadium, creating an eerie and mysterious atmosphere. The weather conditions were so severe that after 81 minutes of intense action, the match had to be abandoned. The foggy backdrop adds an element of suspense and intrigue to this snapshot frozen in time. It is as if nature itself conspired to create a dramatic setting for this highly anticipated football clash between West Bromwich Albion (WBA) and their opponents. The players on both sides can be seen battling through the mist, their determination evident despite limited visibility. This photograph serves as a testament not only to the unpredictable nature of British weather but also to the resilience and passion displayed by these athletes who refused to let adverse conditions dampen their spirits. It captures a moment when sport transcends mere competition, becoming a spectacle of human perseverance. As we reflect on this remarkable image, it reminds us of how sports history is often shaped by unforeseen circumstances like inclement weather. This print allows us to relive a unique chapter in football's past while appreciating both its beauty and unpredictability.
