This is The Blue Lamp (1950), like you've never seen it before... told entirely in colour. The most prominent colour of every frame comes together to form a colour barcode of the film — a vivid portrait of its mood, light and palette from beginning to end. Choose your layout: the full design with the film's title, year and key credits, a simpler version with just the title and year, or the barcode on its own — a love letter to The Blue Lamp for those who know it scene by scene.

Jack Warner plays PC George Dixon, a veteran beat copper in post-war Paddington who takes a new recruit, Jimmy Hanley, under his wing, until a botched cinema robbery puts him in the path of Dirk Bogarde's jittery young gunman. Basil Dearden's Ealing drama was shot on real London streets and became one of the biggest British box office hits of 1950. Dixon's fate in the film did not stop him: Warner went on playing the character for 21 years in the BBC series Dixon of Dock Green.

Print size & quality

Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).

Framing options

Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.

We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.

Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
