17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1975, where the legendary John Catchpole takes center stage. A brilliant engineer with an unwavering passion for motorcycles, John's expertise shines through as he proudly poses beside his self-built two-stroke machines. With a determined gaze and a hint of mischief in his eyes, it is evident that John was not just an ordinary racer; he was a true pioneer. Renowned for his groundbreaking achievements, John Catchpole holds the distinction of being one of the first individuals to push a Scott motorcycle to its limits and achieve "the ton" - reaching speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour. His relentless pursuit of speed and innovation solidified him as a trailblazer within the racing community. This particular snapshot captures John during an exhilarating rally race at BikeSport TT Race Pics. The intensity on his face reflects both the thrill of competition and the sheer joy derived from doing what he loved most – riding fast on two wheels. As we admire this timeless image, let us celebrate not only John Catchpole's remarkable talent but also his indomitable spirit that continues to inspire generations of engineers, racers, and motorcycle enthusiasts alike. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and reminds us that sometimes our greatest adventures begin when we dare to build something extraordinary from scratch.
