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 photograph, titled "Stick 'Em Up" by an unidentified photographer, captures a playful moment in the history of childhood during the 1930s. The image, available through Mary Evans Picture Library, depicts a group of boys on a bustling city street, each holding makeshift guns made from sticks and other found objects. Dressed in shorts and simple shirts, they assume the poses of bank robbers or cowboys, their faces filled with excitement and mischief. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its portrayal of a time when children's play was less regulated and more imaginative. Before the age of video games and organized sports, children created their own amusements using whatever resources they had at hand. In this case, sticks transformed into guns, and the city street became their playground. The boys' costumes, though simple, add to the overall charm of the photograph. Their shorts and shirts, typical of the era, are a reminder of the fashion trends of the 1930s. The boys' expressions and body language suggest a sense of camaraderie and adventure, as they engage in a game that likely brought them hours of entertainment. This photograph is a precious snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the lives of children before the age of technology and mass-produced toys. It serves as a reminder of the power of imagination and the importance of allowing children the freedom to create their own fun. The photograph's title, "Stick 'Em Up," is a testament to the boys' sense of adventure and their ability to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
