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 print from 1975, we are transported back to a thrilling moment during the Rugby Union Second Test match between Australia and England. The game took place in Ballymore, Brisbane, and tensions were running high as both teams fought for victory. Amidst the intense competition, a mischievous plan was hatched by the Australian players to outsmart their English opponents. As if straight out of a comedy sketch, several Australian players can be seen pretending to hide the ball up their shirts in an attempt to deceive the referee and gain an advantage. The image captures not only the cleverness but also the camaraderie among these Australian athletes. With cheeky grins on their faces and mischievous glints in their eyes, they playfully engage in this ball-up-the-jumper trick while Englands Roger Uttley looks on with bemusement. This snapshot showcases not just a sporting event but also reveals moments of lightheartedness amidst fierce competition. It reminds us that even in highly competitive environments like sports, there is room for humor and creativity. Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey has masterfully captured this iconic incident that will forever be etched into rugby history. This print serves as a delightful reminder of how sports can bring joy through unexpected moments of wit and ingenuity.
