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
This photograph showcases the Secumar 10 HLA, a fully automatic life preserver designed for aircrew use, housed at the Deutsches Museum in Munich, Germany. Dating back to 1976, this remarkable artifact is a testament to the advancements in aviation safety during the 20th century. The Secumar 10 HLA was a significant improvement from traditional life preservers, as it automatically inflated upon contact with water. The preserver consisted of a helmet-like guard mask, a life jacket, and a waist belt, all integrated into a single unit. The sleek design allowed for minimal hindrance to the wearer's movements and enabled them to remain buoyant in the water with ease. The Deutsches Museum, with its extensive collection of historical masterpieces from the realms of nature, science, and technology, is the perfect home for this fascinating piece of aviation history. The Secumar 10 HLA represents the dedication and innovation of the aviation industry in ensuring the safety of aircrews during the latter half of the 20th century. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the progress made in aviation technology and the importance of continuous advancement in the field. As we admire this fully automatic life preserver, we are reminded of the rich history of flight and the countless individuals who have contributed to its development. The Secumar 10 HLA is not only a symbol of aviation history but also a reminder of the importance of safety and innovation in the face of new challenges. The Deutsches Museum in Munich, Germany, continues to preserve and showcase such invaluable artifacts, allowing us to learn from the past and look forward to the future of aviation.
