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
1. Title: A Thrilling Moment in County Cricket: Gover of Surrey Takes a Wicket at The Oval, 1939 2. Description: This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the intensity and excitement of a County Cricket Match at The Oval in 1939. The image focuses on a pivotal moment in the game, as Surrey cricketer Alf Gover (wearing the distinctive Surrey cap) triumphantly raises his arms in celebration after taking a wicket. The batsman, with a dejected expression, has been dismissed, caught behind by the wicket-keeper, who is seen in the foreground, poised to remove the bails. The umpire, in the background, has raised his finger to signal the dismissal. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and drama, as the slips fielders eagerly await the next delivery. The pitch, dotted with cracks and pockmarks, bears testament to the hard-fought battle between bat and ball. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of County Cricket in the 1930s, a time when the sport captivated the hearts and minds of the British public. 3.
