All our posters are printed using a lithographic printer -  the image is etched by laser onto a coated aluminium plate - to achieve the highest quality results. We also utilise the best quality modern high performance inks that are available, and print onto 100% cotton paper.

Please note that any type of hand-printed image or artwork will fade when placed in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Due to pigments, amongst other factors, colours gradually fade over time, which is sped up when hung in direct sunlight.

It is for this reason that we highly recommend using UV protection when framing our posters, if they will be exposed to sunlight. UV glass acts as a film, and bounces a large majority of UV rays away from the artwork, which will protect it from fading over time.

Sicilian spectacle: The classic Targa Florio is forever associated with Sicily's picturesquely wild mountainous landscape. A unique setting for a series of races inaugurated in 1905 by Count Vincenzo Florio (of Marsala wine fame), and staged over a variety of circuits, leading to the myth that the direction of the contest was determined by the prevailing frame of mind of the Mafia. Porsche took the laurels in the 1964 race, but the legendary 250 GTO pictured was justly celebrated as a true supercar combining, to quote Forbes, "…beauty, speed and rarity like no other Ferrari."
