Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print.   Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.

The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!

All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).

The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.

There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.

Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts.   The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall.   When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done.   The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1".   All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print.   Click here for mounting details.

Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back.   There are no metal mounting posts at the corners.   Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done.   Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50"   Click here for mounting details.

Acrylic Print Reviews (1998)

The Vickers Wellington twin-engined medium bomber, nicknamed the "Wimpy", was the only aircraft of its type to be used throughout the Second World War, albeit replaced as a front line strike weapon by the four-engined 'heavies' during 1943. It featured a clever geodesic framework designed by Barnes Wallis of later "bouncing bomb" fame - visible through the side window of the Mk 1C aircraft.

This depicts, among others, Wellingtons from No 16 Operational Training Unit RAF. The picture was commissioned by the daughter of the rear gunner in the aircraft in the foreground, R1450, coded JS-Y1. It was brought down "somewhere over Schleswig" on the night of 28/29 July 1942 and he became a prisoner of war.

The 2nd pilot, Canadian Patrick Langford, was to become one of the 'Great Escapees' from Stalag Luft III subsequently executed by the Gestapo.
