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 lithograph print from 1898 showcases the legendary Harry Houdini, one of history's greatest magicians and escape artists. Known for his death-defying stunts and unparalleled showmanship, Houdini mesmerized audiences with his thrilling performances. Born Erik Weisz in Budapest, Hungary, Houdini later adopted the names Ehrich Weiss or Harry Weiss upon immigrating to America. This image captures him at the height of his fame, showcasing his remarkable talent for metamorphosis and trunk mysteries. With a challenge handcuff act that was open to the world, Houdini pushed the boundaries of escapology like no other before him. The poster exudes an air of danger and excitement, featuring bold typography that commands attention. It serves as both an advertisement for Houdini's incredible feats and a testament to his enduring legacy. The vintage aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia to this piece of American history.
