Corner Mining New Castle Off Ice Philadelphia Tyne Wear
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 print captures the essence of a bygone era in England, specifically in the small mining village of Philadelphia in Tyne and Wear, Newcastle. The focal point of the image is the corner post office, a quaint and historical building that served as a hub for communication and community interaction.
The architecture of the post office reflects its time period, likely dating back to the 1950s when this snapshot was taken. Its presence on the corner symbolizes its importance as a central meeting place for villagers to gather news, send letters, and connect with one another.
Despite its small size, Philadelphia holds significant historical value as part of England's industrial past. The mining industry played a crucial role in shaping this village's identity and economy, making it an integral part of Tyne and Wear's heritage.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness daily life unfolding at this charming corner post office. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when handwritten letters were cherished forms of communication and community ties were strong.
