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
Avro Vulcan B.2: Roaring the Skies with its Unique Howl at an Airshow in the 1980s This photograph showcases the iconic Avro Vulcan B.2 bomber of the Royal Air Force (RAF) during an awe-inspiring airshow performance in the late 1980s. The Avro Vulcan, a British jet-powered, delta-winged strategic bomber, was a significant part of the RAF's fleet from 1956 to 1984. The image highlights the Vulcan's distinctive intake systems, which were renowned for generating a powerful howl under specific conditions. This resonance occurred when the aircraft reached a certain speed and altitude, creating a low-frequency sound wave that reverberated through the intakes. This unique phenomenon was a favorite among airshow attendees and Vulcan enthusiasts, adding to the excitement and thrill of the event. The Avro Vulcan B.2 was an essential component of the United Kingdom's nuclear deterrent during the Cold War era. Its impressive capabilities, including its ability to carry nuclear weapons and fly at high altitudes, made it a formidable aircraft in the aviation world. This photograph is a testament to the Avro Vulcan's enduring legacy and the fascination it continues to inspire in aviation enthusiasts. The howl generated by the intakes remains a cherished memory for those fortunate enough to witness it in person, making this image a valuable piece of aeronautical history.
