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
A delightful scene from the early 1900s captures the moment of amusement for a fish delivery boy as he is momentarily distracted by the latest addition to the Tit-Bits magazine. With a fish-laden tray balanced on his steps, the boy sits in the doorway of a quaint cottage, his eyes fixed on the playful illustration in the magazine. The title "Tit-Bits" is clearly visible at the top of the page, with a curious cat peering over his shoulder, adding to the fun and lighthearted atmosphere. The boy's laughter echoes through the air as he reads the amusing content, his focus completely shifted from his fish delivery. The scene is a charming reminder of simpler times, when a moment's distraction could bring joy and laughter to even the most mundane tasks. This postcard, with its captivating image and intriguing title, would have been an effective promotional tool for advertising life insurance, encouraging potential customers to take a moment to consider the importance of securing their future for just 1000 pounds.
