Framed Photos From Mary Evans Picture Library
Headstone Major Gus March-Phillips, St Laurent sur Mer
The grave is in the Commonwealth War Graves Cemetery. March-Phillips commanded a Small Scale Landing Force that came ashore here in a Commando operation named Aquatint on 12 September 1942. As the small team landed they came under fire and the engine of the Motor Torpedo Boat (MTB) that had brought them was damaged and thus unable to take them off. Monitoring of German radio uncovered the fact that March-Phillips drowned while trying to swim out to the MTB. Sergeant A. Williams and Private R. Leonard were shot by the Germans on 13 September. They too lie in the churchyard. Date: 2009

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.
