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).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to April 1990, capturing the bustling construction site of The Cathedral Lanes Shopping Centre in Coventry, Midlands, England. Just seven months before its grand opening in November, this snapshot showcases the remarkable progress made on this iconic building. In the foreground stands a towering crane, symbolizing the tireless efforts and dedication put forth by countless workers who labored diligently to bring this vision to life. The skeletal structure of the shopping center begins to take shape, hinting at the exciting future it holds as a hub for consumer activity. Peering into the background, we catch a glimpse of history with The Holy Trinity Church and St Michaels Tower's spire gracefully standing tall against an azure sky. This juxtaposition between old and new creates a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity that characterizes Coventry. The photograph was taken on April 26th, 1990 - freezing a moment in time when anticipation filled the air as completion neared. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination that transformed an empty plot into what would become one of Coventry's most beloved landmarks. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints' collection by Mirrorpix, we are transported back three decades ago when dreams were being realized amidst scaffolding and concrete. It reminds us that every architectural marvel has its humble beginnings – born from blueprints sketched with ambition and brought to fruition through hard work and unwavering commitment.
