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
This striking photograph captures the grace and power of a Grumman C-1A Trader aircraft, specifically United States Navy serial number 136791, assigned to VR-30 (base code RW, call sign 791), as it sits on the tarmac at Alameda Naval Air Station on November 4, 1967. The Grumman C-1 Trader is a versatile twin-engine transport aircraft that was originally designed for the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps for the transport of personnel and cargo. It first flew in 1956 and remained in service until the late 1990s. In this image, the C-1A Trader is shown in its military livery, with the distinctive red and white stripes of the United States Navy adorning its fuselage. The aircraft's twin engines are visible at the wings, ready to power the plane into the air for its next mission. The photograph was taken at Alameda Naval Air Station, which was a major base for the United States Navy and United States Coast Guard from 1940 until its closure in 1997. The base was located in Alameda, California, and was an important hub for naval aviation in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Grumman C-1A Trader played a crucial role in the United States Navy's fleet, providing essential transport capabilities for personnel and cargo. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era in naval aviation history, capturing the elegance and power of a classic military aircraft in its element.
