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 in time to the year 1909, capturing an advertisement poster for the highly anticipated Attercliffe Swimming Club's 31st Annual Swimming Gala. The event was held at the iconic Attercliffe Baths, a renowned hub of aquatic activities in Sheffield during that era. The poster itself is a testament to the vibrant sporting culture that thrived within this community. It showcases an array of talented swimmers gracefully diving into crystal-clear waters, their synchronized movements conveying both strength and elegance. The image serves as a powerful reminder of how swimming was not only a competitive sport but also an art form. Located on Attercliffe Road, these baths were more than just a venue; they were a symbol of pride for local residents who took great pleasure in witnessing remarkable feats accomplished by their fellow citizens. With state-of-the-art facilities and meticulously maintained pools, Attercliffe Baths became synonymous with excellence in sports. This photograph allows us to appreciate the historical significance of advertising posters as tools for promoting events long before digital media dominated our world. It reminds us of the creativity employed by organizers to entice spectators through visually striking imagery. Preserved at Sheffield Archives (ref. X3/8), this snapshot from yesteryear offers us a glimpse into the past while celebrating the enduring spirit of athleticism and community engagement fostered by organizations like Attercliffe Swimming Club over a century ago.
