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.

Havana Good Time: First opened in 1817, El Floridita can still be found in its original Havana location, although for the first 100 years of its existence it was named La Piña de Plata (the silver pineapple). Catalan immigrant, Constantino Ribalaigua Vert, nicknamed Constante, became the owner in 1918 and is credited for inventing the frozen daiquiri in the early 1930s, a drink that became linked to the fame of the place, whose motto is now 'la cuna del daiquiri' (the cradle of the daiquiri). Favoured haunt of Hemingway, along with a host of other prominent socialites and intellectuals of the time, it is acknowledged as being one of the best bars in the world.
