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 peek into the past with this charming advertising postcard featuring the 'New Home' sewing machine, proudly made by Gonyea and Alba of Rutland, Vermont. Circa 1910, this image showcases the convenience and versatility of this sewing machine, allowing repairs to be carried out in the comfort of one's own home. The scene is set in a cozy parlor, where a mother and her sons are gathered around the machine, mending a pair of breeches. The treadle sewing machine, with its intricate design and detailed woodwork, is the center of attention. The amusing and humorous image captures the sons in an upside-down position, hanging from the ceiling, as they attempt to sew a trouser leg in an uncomfortable position. Their playful antics add a touch of fun and lightheartedness to the otherwise mundane task of repairing clothing. This postcard not only highlights the functionality of the New Home sewing machine but also evokes a sense of nostalgia and family bonding. The treadle action of the machine, a common feature during this era, adds to the vintage appeal of the image. Overall, this postcard is a delightful reminder of a simpler time, when mending clothes was a communal activity and a source of entertainment for the whole family.
