I thought that would be a doddle to find, and I was ready with a scathing "Let Me Google That For You"-esque post.

It's a bugger to find, though biggrin

(You'll need to add it to basket and go through to the checkout to see the pricing (7 to 22 quid for prints of limited size, but bigger versions are available as digital downloads, which you can then get a 3rd party to actually print)

You're welcome smile

FYI the minus key can be very handy when googling, ie excluding certain words. Given one of the artists was called "Brewer" and Balloon printing seems to be quite a commercial venture, I found that

"brewer wyllie print london 1884 -printing -brewing"

did the trick.
