This vibrant and authentic image, sourced from the West Sussex County Council archives, captures the essence of a traditional farming event. Sheep are proudly displayed for judging, while a lorry bearing the distinct logo of Cooper McDougall and Robertson Ltd of Berkhampstead adds to the scene's nostalgic appeal. Bring a piece of rural history into your home or office with this beautifully printed poster, perfect for agriculture enthusiasts and those who appreciate the simple pleasures of rural life.

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.

Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 59.4cm x 39.1cm (23.4" x 15.4")

Estimated Product Size is 59.4cm x 42cm (23.4" x 16.5")

These are individually made so all sizes are approximate

Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with landscape (horizontal) orientation to match the source image.


EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Southdown Sheep Show of September 1949, captured in this remarkable print from the George Garland Collection. As we gaze upon this snapshot of history, we are transported to a world where sheep were not just livestock but stars of their own show. In the foreground, a contestant stands proudly beside his prized sheep, meticulously groomed and adorned for judgment. The judge, with an air of authority and expertise, carefully evaluates each animal's qualities against strict criteria. Their overalls speak volumes about their dedication to this age-old tradition. The backdrop is equally captivating; a rustic flint wall serves as a picturesque boundary between man and nature. It provides an idyllic setting for showcasing these magnificent creatures that have been bred and nurtured by generations past. But what truly captures our attention is the old lorry bearing the name 'Cooper McDougal and Robertson Ltd. ' This relic from yesteryear reminds us that even then, transportation played a crucial role in bringing together farmers from far-flung corners of Berkhampstead for this grand event. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's vast archives, this photograph offers us glimpses into our agricultural heritage - reminding us of the hard work and passion that went into breeding these exceptional animals. Let it serve as a testament to those who dedicated their lives to preserving such traditions while inspiring future generations to appreciate our rich farming legacy.
