Can anyone tell me what this is/where it came from?
« on: June 06, 2014, 07:42:59 AM »
I have this in my room, I got it from a carboot last year for 50p, but I've never actually known its origin.

Super cute! I've seen some framed G1 art before, but I don't know if was anything special like mail order only. I believe it was just merchandise you could buy in a store like books or cups with MLP on them.

I did a bit of searching on google and came across the site below that has some pony merch images.  If you scroll to the bottom, you'll see the art like yours ("My Little Pony - In front of the Nursery") along with two others.

This was part of a series of different framed prints sold exclusively at British Home Stores in the 80s.

How big is it?  The prints came in about three different sizes.  From the width of the frame this looks like one of the bigger ones which are quite rare.  The middle size is the most common, but even those tend to go on eBay for £10-20 each so you got a bargain. :)
