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 vibrant and patriotic lithograph from 1919 captures the essence of the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) division for foreign-born women in their mission to promote unity and Americanization. Created by artist C. Howard Walker, this poster features a striking bald eagle, symbolizing national pride and strength. The YWCA played a crucial role in helping immigrants assimilate into American society during the early 20th century. Through classes on American history, politics, English language skills, and homemaking, they aimed to empower foreign-born women with knowledge and skills necessary for successful integration. The colorful flag backdrop serves as a reminder of the United States' identity as a melting pot of cultures. It represents not only the diversity brought by these immigrant women but also their desire to become proud Americans. This chromolithograph is an important historical artifact that showcases both the efforts made by organizations like YWCA to foster unity among diverse communities and America's commitment to embracing immigrants throughout its history. Displayed proudly in private collections today, this print stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of those who sought better lives in America while honoring their heritage.
