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
A haunting reminder of the devastating impact of war, this print captures the aftermath of a ceiling collapse on a ward at The Westminster Hospital in May 1941. The hospital, once a place of healing and care, now stands as a testament to the destructive force unleashed during World War Two. Severely damaged by a landmine, the first-floor ward bears witness to the horrors experienced on the home front. Bed frames lie twisted and broken amidst piles of rubble, while remnants of plaster hang precariously from what remains of the ceiling. It is an eerie scene that speaks volumes about the resilience and sacrifice displayed by medical professionals and patients alike during these tumultuous times. This image serves as a poignant reminder not only of physical damage but also highlights the indomitable spirit that emerged amidst chaos. Despite facing constant air raids and civil defense challenges, hospitals like The Westminster continued to provide vital medical support for those injured in conflict. As we reflect upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, let us honor all those who endured such hardships during World War Two. Their bravery and determination serve as an enduring inspiration for generations to come.
