Nostalgic Heaven at Ladybird Prints
If you’re on the lookout for retro prints for your baby nursery or playroom that will evoke some serious nostalgia, look no further than Ladybird Prints.
A new site, it’s got thousands of full colour illustrations from the many Ladybird books of our childhood that you’ll instantly recognise. I felt five again and that’s no mean feat when you’re 37 weeks pregnant!
As the first Ladybird book was published in 1940, you can literally take a walk down memory lane and through the decades as they published books that were, whilst undoubtedly traditional, very much reflective of the time. From fairy tales, to nursery rhymes, to educational, to learning to read, they’re all here and the great difficulty is trying to choose one to call your favourite!
You can have your favourite(s) put on paper or canvas starting from £7.50 for 8″ X 6″ which is like photograph size up to £225 for 125cm stretched canvas. There are lots of sizes and finishes to choose from as well as frames, plus a gallery to bookmark your favourites – trust me, you’ll be on the site a while!

What an amazing find! I’m 8 years old again; how I wanted a dog just like Pat when I was little.
