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 vintage still, we witness a moment frozen in time as "The Flying Scotsman" embarks on its final journey from Kings Cross station. The date is etched into history - 14th January 1963. This iconic locomotive, known for its majestic presence and unrivaled speed, steams gracefully along the tracks, leaving behind billows of white smoke that blend with the wintry air. "The Flying Scotsman" a class A3 4472 Pacific steam engine, stands as a testament to the golden age of railways. Its sleek design and powerful stature evoke nostalgia for an era when train travel was synonymous with elegance and adventure. As it departs from Kings Cross station, one can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of its wheels against the rails and feel the excitement emanating from passengers aboard. This remarkable photograph captures not only a historic moment but also symbolizes progress and change. It marks an end to an era where steam engines reigned supreme on our railway networks. Yet, it also serves as a reminder that even though technology advances relentlessly forward, there will always be something enchanting about these magnificent machines. Preserved within TopFoto's extensive archive picture library stock photographic collection, this image allows us to relive this significant event in British rail history. It invites us to marvel at both the engineering prowess of "The Flying Scotsman" and our collective fascination with trains – timeless symbols of human ingenuity and connectivity across vast distances.
