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.

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 titled "CARTOON: BIRTH CONTROL" takes us back to the year 1918, a time when birth control was still considered a controversial topic. Drawn by Lou Rogers for Margaret Sanger's Birth Control Review, this cartoon serves as an allegory for the early feminist movement in America. The image features Uncle Sam, a symbol of American patriotism and political action, wearing glasses labeled "sexism". He is seen holding up a sign that reads "Birth Control" representing the fight against societal restrictions on reproductive rights. The artist cleverly uses symbolism to depict how sexism clouds one's vision and hinders progress. In this thought-provoking artwork, Rogers skillfully captures the essence of activism during that era. By highlighting the importance of birth control through visual storytelling, she challenges traditional norms and advocates for women's autonomy over their bodies. This historical artifact reminds us of Margaret Sanger's significant contributions to women's rights and her relentless pursuit of reproductive freedom. It serves as a reminder that even in times when discussing such topics was taboo, there were brave individuals like Sanger who fought tirelessly for change. As we reflect upon this powerful image from our past, it prompts us to continue advocating for gender equality and ensuring that every individual has access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare without judgment or discrimination.
