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.

Carroll 'Boardwalk' Brown: A Pioneering Baseball Star of the 1910s This photograph, taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing in 1913, showcases Carroll 'Boardwalk' Brown, an exceptional baseball player for the Philadelphia American League team. Brown, born on April 12, 1886, in Waco, Texas, was the first African American pitcher to play in the American League. Brown's nickname, 'Boardwalk,' was given to him due to his smooth and effortless pitching style, which reminded many of the easy gait of people strolling on a boardwalk. In this photograph, Brown is depicted in a full-length pose, wearing his baseball uniform, and exuding an air of focus and determination. His intense gaze and strong posture convey the intensity and concentration required to excel in the sport. This photograph is an invaluable piece of baseball history, as it captures a pivotal moment in the integration of professional sports in the United States. Brown's groundbreaking career paved the way for other African American players to follow in his footsteps and break racial barriers in baseball and other sports. The Harris & Ewing photographic studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, was a prominent fixture in Washington D.C. during the early 20th century. Their studio produced numerous glass negatives, many of which are now part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. This image of Carroll 'Boardwalk' Brown is a testament to their skill and the historical significance of their work.
