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
A Side-Splitting Comparison: Jim's Girl and My Girl in 20th Century Comic Style! Step right up, folks, and feast your eyes on this hysterical 20th-century comic postcard that's sure to tickle your funny bone! This delightful print invites us to compare Jim's girl and my girl in an amusing and lighthearted way. On the left, we have Jim's girl, a young, pretty, and attractive woman with a charming smile and an elegant dress. She's the epitome of grace and beauty, leaving Jim feeling mighty proud. But wait! On the right, we have my girl, a middle-aged woman, who, let's just say, doesn't quite measure up to Jim's ideal of beauty. She's a bit frumpy, with a frumpier outfit and a less-than-impressed expression. The humor lies in the comparison between the two women, with the comic strip poking fun at the age-old notion that youth and beauty are the ultimate prizes. But fear not, my girl! This comic postcard reminds us that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and Jim, for one, still finds you charming and lovable, frumps and all! This charming 20th-century comic postcard is a testament to the enduring power of humor and the importance of appreciating the unique qualities of those we love, no matter their age or appearance. And with a nod to the classic British humor of Donald McGill, it's a must-have for any collection of vintage comic postcards!
