31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 a significant moment in American history - the construction of the USS Akron (ZRS-4), an iconic zeppelin that soared through the skies during the early 1930s. The image captures this magnificent airship inside its shed in Akron, Ohio, on a summer day in July 1931. The sheer size and complexity of the construction project are evident as we observe workers diligently assembling various parts of the zeppelin. A scaffold stands tall beside it, serving as a platform for engineers and technicians who meticulously piece together this marvel of engineering. The hangar itself is vast, providing ample space for this ambitious undertaking. This photograph not only showcases the ingenuity behind aviation technology but also highlights America's prowess in aeronautical advancements during that era. It serves as a testament to human innovation and determination to conquer new frontiers. As we gaze at this historical snapshot, our minds wander into an era when air travel was still relatively novel and filled with excitement. We can almost hear the hum of activity within those walls - conversations between workers discussing plans, tools clinking against metal surfaces, and perhaps even snippets of laughter amidst their hard work. This print is more than just an image; it encapsulates a pivotal moment in time when dreams took flight and boundaries were pushed further by human ambition.
