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 takes us back to the bustling streets of London in June 1922. The scene captures a lively moment at the Elephant and Castle, where a convergence of trams, buses, and subsidy lorries has caused a small traffic jam. The iconic LCC trams of classes B, A, and E/1 dominate the foreground as they proudly display advertisements for Selfridges and the Evening News. Amongst this organized chaos, a lorry catches our attention with its prominent sign promoting Pascall sweets. The image showcases not only various modes of transport but also provides glimpses into daily life during that era. Lampposts line the street while bicycles weave through traffic alongside motorized vehicles. This snapshot offers an intriguing glimpse into early 20th-century transportation in one of Europe's most vibrant cities. The historical significance is further emphasized by its archival nature – preserved meticulously by Topical Press Agency over the years. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported to a time when these vehicles were at their prime, representing both progress and convenience. Through this evocative image, we witness how urban spaces like Elephant and Castle have always been hubs of activity - forever evolving yet retaining their charm throughout history.
