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 group photograph captures the camaraderie and dedication of the firemen at LCC-LFB Whitechapel Fire Station in London during the 1920s. Taken in April 1927, the image shows a line of firemen, all wearing their distinctive peaked caps and uniforms, standing proudly in front of the station's doors. The fire station's carpeted floor adds a sense of warmth and homeliness to the otherwise utilitarian setting. The London County Council Fire Brigade (LCC-LFB) was the forerunner of the modern London Fire Brigade, and these brave men were responsible for protecting the city from the devastating effects of fire. With their hoses, helmets, and other essential equipment at hand, they were always ready to respond to emergencies and save lives. The 1920s were a pivotal time in the history of the fire service, as new technologies and techniques were being developed to improve firefighting capabilities. The firemen in this photograph embody the spirit of innovation and determination that characterized the era. As you gaze at this photograph, you can almost hear the clanging of the fire station bells and the sound of sirens in the distance. The firemen's steady gaze and determined expressions convey their unwavering commitment to their duty, making this an enduring reminder of the heroism and bravery of the fire service.
