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
In this print titled "Skinhead and Ben Sherman boy. 15th August 1970" we are transported back to the vibrant youth culture of the 1970s. The image captures two friends, one a skinhead and the other sporting a stylish Ben Sherman outfit, waiting at a bus stop on a summer day. The photograph offers us a glimpse into the fashion choices that defined this era. The skinhead's attire showcases their rebellious spirit with their iconic shaved heads, sturdy boots, and braces holding up their trousers. On the other hand, his companion exudes an air of sophistication in his well-tailored Ben Sherman ensemble – an emblematic brand synonymous with British subcultures. Beyond mere fashion statements, this snapshot also reflects social history by encapsulating teenage life during this period. These young individuals represent an entire generation seeking identity and camaraderie through shared style choices. Their friendship is palpable as they patiently wait for public transportation while engaged in conversation or perhaps planning their next adventure. As we gaze upon this evocative image from Memory Lane Prints' collection, it serves as a reminder of how clothing can transcend its utilitarian purpose to become symbols of self-expression and unity within subcultures. It invites us to reflect on our own experiences growing up amidst ever-changing trends while appreciating the timeless bonds forged between friends who navigate these transformative years together.
