FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
In the early 20th century, the world was fascinated by the mysterious and unexplained phenomena of psychic abilities. Among the most intriguing figures of that time was British medium Stella Cranshawe (1890-1945), whose psychic powers were investigated by renowned spiritualist and magician Harry Price (1881-1948). The photograph above, taken in 1923, captures a significant moment in their investigations. The image shows Stella Cranshawe holding a smoked tin plate, which bears distinct psychic structures, as documented by Price. The plate, which was used during one of their séances, was reportedly marked by various shapes and symbols that appeared during the session, seemingly inexplicably. Price, a skeptical investigator, was determined to uncover the truth behind these phenomena. He meticulously documented his investigations into Stella Cranshawe's abilities, conducting numerous experiments and tests to determine the authenticity of her psychic powers. The photograph is a testament to their collaborative efforts to understand the unknown. The photograph is part of the extensive collection of the National Library of Parapsychology (NLPR), held at the University of Rhode Island, and was taken by Frank C. Betts. The image provides a unique glimpse into the world of psychic investigations during the early 20th century, offering a fascinating look at the intersection of science, spirituality, and the unknown. Stella Cranshawe's story and her collaboration with Harry Price continue to captivate researchers and enthusiasts of the paranormal, as they delve deeper into the mysteries of the human mind and the unexplained phenomena that surround us.
