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 Heroic Battle Against the Flames: London Fire Brigade Fights a Major Fire at the Grocers Hall, City of London, 1965 In this evocative photograph, London Fire Brigade firefighters are seen working tirelessly to extinguish a major fire that engulfed the historic Grocers Hall in the City of London during the 1960s. The image captures the intensity and urgency of the scene as firefighters brave the smoke and flames to save the iconic building from destruction. The firemen, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, are seen working from a slated roof, attacking the fire through a hole made in the slates. The grocer's hall, a livery company hall, is shrouded in thick, smoky darkness, with hoses snaking out of the windows and down the street. The fire brigade's service vehicles are parked nearby, ready to provide support and supplies as needed. The Grocers Hall, a historic building with a rich history dating back to the 15th century, was a significant landmark in the City of London. The fire, which broke out in 1965, caused extensive damage to the building, but the quick response and bravery of the London Fire Brigade prevented it from being completely destroyed. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important role that the London Fire Brigade plays in protecting the city and its people from the devastating effects of fire. The firefighters' unwavering dedication and professionalism are on full display as they work to save the Grocers Hall from the flames. The image captures the essence of firefighting in the 1960s and is a testament to the courage and skill of the London Fire Brigade.
