The Story Behind the Print

Frank Whittle’s U.S. Patent 2168726, granted August 8, 1939, documents a gas-turbine aircraft propulsion system integrating compressor, combustion chamber, turbine, and exhaust flow.

Long engine sections and concentric mechanical stages give the sheet a powerful streamlined industrial character. This restored edition preserves the original patent arrangement in crisp black linework on cool, timeworn rag paper within the collection’s restrained black double rule.

Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. A natural piece for aviation rooms, offices, engineering studios, and collections of jet-age history.

Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.

About the Frame

Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with clear acrylic glazing, dry-mounted artwork, a kraft paper dust cover, and hanging wire. Each piece arrives ready to hang. No mat. Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.

The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.

Great quality ! Looks awesome in my bar! Lots of compliments from restaurant guests! I highly suggest this print shop!
Just perfect! I adore it for my kitchen.
Wow! This is the second print I've purchased from Paola and couldn't be happier with the quality! It's printed on nice thick paper and the colors are really vibrant. I bought it as a gift and the recipient loves it. The packaging was nice as well - it came rolled up so it was protected during shipping but unrolled easily for the frame. Thank you!!
