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 showcases a playbill for the production of "The Treasure" at the Musart Theatre in Los Angeles during 1937. The creator of this artwork remains unknown, but the playbill is attributed to David Pinsky [sic] and was directed by Adolph Freeman. The play was presented in both Yiddish and English, reflecting the diverse cultural landscape of the time. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA), is credited for the creation of this theatrical event. Established in 1935, the Federal Theatre Project aimed to conserve and develop the skills of theater workers, re-employ them on public relief, and bring live theater to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced it. The graphic design of the playbill is a testament to the era's political and artistic climate. The bold Hebrew text, along with the English translation, highlights the importance of preserving cultural heritage. The colorful and intricate lettering adds to the allure of the theatrical production, inviting audiences to attend and be a part of this unique cultural event. This playbill serves as an essential piece of American heritage art, showcasing the rich history of the performing arts during the 1930s. The New Deal initiative brought together artists, writers, and performers to create a vibrant and inclusive cultural scene, providing a much-needed source of inspiration and entertainment during a challenging time in American history.
