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.

Join the Navy, the Service for Fighting Men
EDITORS COMMENTS
- a powerful call to action from the early years of the First World War. Circa 1917, this evocative poster invites young American men to enlist and become heroes of the sea. The dynamic image of a sailor, muscular and determined, astride a torpedo, embodies the heroic spirit of the naval forces. The water around him churns with energy, reflecting the intensity and urgency of the wartime effort. The poster's design is a masterclass in persuasive propaganda. The bold red, white, and blue color palette evokes the patriotism of the era, while the tagline "Join the Navy" is repeated prominently, driving the message home. The use of the word "fighting" in both the title and the subheading emphasizes the importance of physical strength and courage in the face of the enemy. This poster, produced circa 1917, is a testament to the spirit of the First World War and the role of the US Navy in the 1910s. It speaks to the sense of duty, honor, and patriotism that motivated countless young men to enlist and serve their country during this pivotal moment in history. The image of the sailor, poised and ready for action, remains an enduring symbol of the heroism and bravery of the men who answered the call to serve.
