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
A Moment of Safety: Lollipop Lady Guides School Children Across Quiet Residential Road, Early 1970s This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a moment of innocence and safety in the early 1970s as a lollipop lady, dressed in a bright red coat and holding a lollipop sign, assists a group of schoolchildren to cross a very quiet residential road. The children, all dressed in their uniforms and shorts, eagerly follow her instructions, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement. The road, lined with trees and houses, is virtually empty of traffic, adding to the sense of tranquility and calm. The lollipop lady, a familiar figure in British streets during the 1960s and 1970s, played a crucial role in ensuring the safety of children as they made their way to and from school. With the increasing number of cars on the roads, the need for dedicated pedestrian crossings and traffic wardens became more pressing than ever before. The lollipop lady, with her distinctive sign and lollipop, became a symbol of protection and reassurance for generations of children. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a time when the streets were quieter, and the focus was on the safety and well-being of children as they navigated their way through the transport network of their local communities. It also highlights the important role that community figures, such as lollipop ladies and gentlemen, continue to play in ensuring the safety of children as they make their way to and from school.
