This is a fantastic image of Windsor Castle and the pipe band of The Scots Guards. This dates at least from the late 1950's. I believe this was displayed in France judging from the stamp on the reverse of the poster. The poster was published in Britain by The British Travel Association and printed by Sun Printers Ltd, Watford and London.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 30.3 in x 20.5 in (77 cm x 52 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWindsor Castle is a royal residence at Windsor in the English county of Berkshire. It is strongly associated with the English and succeeding British royal family, and embodies almost 1000 years of architectural history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original castle was built in the 11th century after the Norman invasion of England by William the Conqueror. Since the time of Henry I, it has been used by the reigning monarch and is the longest-occupied palace in Europe. The castle's lavish early 19th-century State Apartments were described by early 20th century art historian Hugh Roberts as \"a superb and unrivalled sequence of rooms widely regarded as the finest and most complete expression of later Georgian taste\". Inside the castle walls is the 15th-century St George's Chapel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen framed these colourful and detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the FAQ for more information on shipping, tracking and insurance options.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lampposted","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57206157640067,"sku":"L7LE6","price":80.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8538\/7139\/files\/il_fullxfull.2814684155_4y73.jpg?v=1768961735","url":"https:\/\/lampposted.com\/products\/original-vintage-british-windsor-castle-51334","provider":"Lampposted","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
