Allan Emigration Express Liners Mail Weekly Liner
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
Step aboard the majestic Allan Line ships and set sail for the land of opportunity with this vintage poster. Dating back to the early 20th century, this advertisement showcases the weekly express service provided by the esteemed Allan Line Company between Great Britain and Canada. The intricate design features a fleet of steamships cutting through the tranquil waters, proudly displaying the Canadian and British flags. The ships in this poster not only represent a swift and reliable means of transportation for passengers seeking a new life in Canada, but also serve as the trusted deliverers of the Royal Mail. The red postbox on the bow of one of the ships is a testament to this important role. Emigration was a significant part of the history of both Britain and Canada during this era, and the Allan Line played a pivotal role in facilitating this movement. This poster not only promotes the journey itself but also the excitement and anticipation that came with embarking on a new adventure in a far-off land. The intricate details of the ships, the waving flags, and the vibrant colors all contribute to the historical charm of this poster. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a window into the maritime history of the transatlantic journey and the role of the Allan Line Company in shaping it. This poster is a must-have for history enthusiasts, maritime collectors, and anyone with a passion for the rich history of travel and emigration. It is a beautiful reminder of a bygone era and the incredible stories that lie within.
