Automobilia Batteries Battery Beret Cardboard Crank Gloves Handle Marker Mile Mileage Plaid Signs Tweed Skirt
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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 this charming vintage photograph, a cardboard sign advertising Exide Batteries proudly sits along the side of a dusty road. The sign, with its faded colors and worn edges, exudes an air of history and nostalgia. The long-life batteries are advertised as the go-to choice for motorists, with the tagline "Exide - The Long Life Battery" prominently displayed. The sign is held up by a woman dressed in a vintage skirt, tweed jacket, and a beret, adding to the historical feel of the image. She wears a pair of white gloves and holds a marker in her hand, perhaps preparing to update the mileage on the sign. In the background, a classic automobile with a crank handle can be seen, further emphasizing the motoring theme. The cardboard sign, with its simple yet effective design, is a delightful example of advertising from a bygone era. The use of a woman to hold the sign adds a personal touch, making the advertisement feel more approachable and trustworthy. The plaid skirt and beret also add a touch of coy charm to the image. Despite its aged appearance, the sign remains a testament to the enduring quality of Exide Batteries. The long-life promise of the batteries has likely drawn many a weary traveler to stop and take notice, ensuring that the brand's reputation for reliability remains strong. This photograph is a wonderful addition to any collection of automobilia or historical advertising images. Its vintage aesthetic and nostalgic charm make it a delight to behold, transporting us back to a simpler time when cardboard signs were the norm and long-life batteries were a novelty.
