A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. 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 print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Reading in June 1980. Standing at a bustling pelican crossing opposite Woolworths on Broad Street, we are transported to an era where cycling was a common mode of transportation and pedestrians roamed freely. The image captures the essence of road safety as a cyclist confidently navigates through the traffic, while pedestrians patiently wait for their turn to cross. The pelican crossing stands as a symbol of order and convenience, ensuring that both cyclists and pedestrians can safely traverse this busy intersection. Woolworths, once an iconic shopping destination, serves as the backdrop for this snapshot in time. Its presence reminds us of an era when high street shops were thriving and provided endless opportunities for retail therapy. As we gaze upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints by Reading Post, nostalgia washes over us. It transports us back to an age before online shopping dominated our lives; when visiting physical stores was not just about purchasing goods but also about immersing oneself in the vibrant atmosphere of town centers. This print encapsulates the spirit of 1980s Reading - a place where people cycled with ease, pedestrians strolled leisurely across well-regulated crossings, and shoppers eagerly explored beloved establishments like Woolworths.
