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 vintage print showcases a captivating magazine advertisement from 1926, promoting the Maytag electric washer. The ad captures the essence of early American domestic life, with its focus on household chores and the role of women as housewives. The image features a woman standing proudly beside her newly acquired Maytag electric washer, symbolizing modernity and progress in the realm of laundry. The prominent Maytag logo is displayed prominently at the top, emphasizing brand recognition and trustworthiness. The simplicity of this advertisement reflects an era when washing machines were still considered innovative technology. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of convenience and efficiency in our daily lives. This photograph transports us back to 1926 America, where women dedicated their time to maintaining clean households without the aid of modern appliances that we often take for granted today. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times while also highlighting societal expectations placed upon women during that period. Preserved by The Granger Collection based in New York City, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into advertising strategies employed nearly a century ago. Its enduring appeal lies not only in its artistic value but also in its ability to provoke contemplation about our own relationship with technology and gender roles throughout history.
