It’s a reprint of course. But this 1965 framed Lambretta advertising print looks like it could be an original.
Why from 1965? Well, the original year is scribbled in the corner of the image, presumably because the original had it written on too. It has been reprinted and is available as a framed print as well as unframed if you want to save yourself some money and do it yourself. If you have a spare frame kicking around, it might be the way to go.
This advertisement is produced on 280gsm fine art paper, which is apparently ‘designed for museum-quality reproductions’. The print itself has gone through a 12-colour giclee printing process and has a conservation-grade, FSC-certified and 100% acid-free mount, that will not discolour or fade with age.
The frame is described as ‘high-quality wood’ with a satin finish.
Fancy it? In that case, you’ll want to know the price. But that’s not completely straightforward. That is because the print is available in various sizes, so prices for the framed Lambretta print vary between £32.99 and £84.99 depending on that size choice.

As I said, you can get an unframed version too, which is available from a more affordable £14.99. Details of that are here.
