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 evocative photograph, taken in 1905, showcases the impressive Advert for James Wotherspoon & Sons, a renowned asbestos, rubber, and hose manufacturing business based in Glasgow, Scotland. The image captures the spirit of the Scottish industrial era, with the towering chimney of the factory standing proudly against the sky, emitting plumes of smoke. The name of the company, "James Wotherspoon & Sons," is prominently displayed in bold, ornate letters, accompanied by the tagline, "Asbestos, Rubber and Canvas Hose Manufacturers." The Edwardian-era advertisement reflects the innovative and progressive nature of the business, which was at the forefront of manufacturing technology during the early 1900s. The use of asbestos, a fire-resistant material, was a significant breakthrough in the industry, making the production of hoses safer and more efficient. The inclusion of rubber and canvas in the company's offerings further underscores their commitment to providing a diverse range of high-quality products. The photograph serves as a fascinating snapshot of the past, offering a glimpse into the industrial landscape of Scotland during the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit of James Wotherspoon & Sons, a company that played a crucial role in the development of the Scottish manufacturing industry.
