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
This print captures the thrilling Scottish reliability trials that took place in June 1909. The image, taken by a European photographer from the 19th century, showcases a moment of intense excitement and glamour in early motoring history. The scene depicts a competitor skillfully negotiating Amulree Hill, one of the challenging sections of the trials. The driver's determination is palpable as they navigate their automobile through this demanding terrain. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the romance and adventure associated with early car races. The photograph was originally featured as an illustration for "The Romance of Motoring" by T. C. Bridges and H. Hessell Tiltman, published in 1933. It has since become part of a private collection but remains an invaluable piece of historical documentation. Looking at this image transports us back to a time when automobiles were still relatively new inventions, representing not only a means of transport but also symbols of progress and freedom. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and transportation. Whether you are interested in cars or simply fascinated by history, this print offers a glimpse into the past while celebrating the spirit of competition and innovation that continues to drive us forward today.
