Royal Northern Hospital
Original antique poster for the Royal Northern Hospital N7 featuring the smart new hospital with a person on the main staircase entrance, people walking by a fruit stall and flower sellers, a bus stop and a General London bus driving by a sign announcing the site of the proposed extension. This general hospital and centre for postgraduate medical education was founded in 1856, moving to Holloway Road in 1888 and becoming the Royal Northern Hospital in 1911; the building was designed by architects Young and Hall and was opened in 1923 by the Prince of Wales (Edward VIII); construction on the extension started in 1929; the hospital closed in 1992 when its services were merged with other NHS North London centres; the site is now flats with the Royal Northern Gardens and memorial wall on the former casualty department. Printed by J. Weiner Ltd. Horizontal. Large size. Good condition, folds, repaired tears, minor staining, backed on linen.

FAQs
More information about our posters and service.
Are your posters originals?
All our antique and vintage posters, books, maps and prints listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity.
What is a lithograph?
Practically all of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves carving each colour of the image onto a piece of stone. The poster sheet is then imprinted consecutively with a stone slab for each colour, creating a stunning and rich image.
With the exception of silk printing, we believe that other printing techniques do not deliver the same impact of colour as lithography.
Where do you deliver to?
We ship posters worldwide rolled in shock-resistant and hard wearing tubes. Unless specified otherwise, delivery is free within the UK and standard international delivery is £25 for orders placed via our website.
