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.

A modern magic carpet: Paris' Mondial de l'Automobile was the world's first motor show, launched in 1898 by industry pioneer, Count de Dion. It is still one of the most important auto shows, often with many new production automobile and concept car debuts. In Avalon's stylised rendering, three elegant Bentley Continental 'fastbacks' are shown weaving their way through Paris' most famous landmarks. Bentley's Continental R-Type was the epitome of British luxury in the 1950s, earning accolades too numerous to list. Created specifically for continental Europe, the majority coachbuilt by H.J. Mulliner, this was the first appearance of the famed 'Continental' name.
