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
1. Title: "Gas Turbine No. 18000: A Pioneering Milestone in Energy Technology". This photograph showcases a historic gas turbine, designated as No. 18000, which was built by the renowned Swiss firm Brown Boveri in 1949. The turbine, a marvel of engineering innovation, is currently on display at the Steam Museum of the Great Western Railway (GWR), showcasing the evolution of power generation technology. Brown Boveri, a pioneering company in the field of gas turbines, played a significant role in the development and commercialization of this technology. Gas turbines, unlike their steam counterparts, operate by using a continuous combustion process, where fuel is burned in a compressor to produce hot gas that drives a turbine. This process is more efficient and produces fewer emissions compared to steam turbines. Gas Turbine No. 18000, with its sleek design and impressive dimensions, represents the early days of this groundbreaking technology. Its construction marked a turning point in the energy sector, paving the way for the widespread adoption of gas turbines in various industries, including aviation and power generation. The turbine's intricate components, including the compressor, combustion chamber, and turbine, are expertly showcased in this photograph. The intricate network of pipes and valves, designed to control the flow of air and fuel, are a testament to the complex engineering involved in creating such a powerful and efficient machine. As a visitor to the Steam Museum of the GWR, gazing upon this historic gas turbine offers a unique opportunity to witness the ingenuity and innovation that shaped the energy landscape of the 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the relentless pursuit of progress and the transformative power of technology.
