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 photograph showcases a Royal Air Force (RAF) Vickers Varsity T.1 aircraft in flight, circa 1965. The Varsity, a twin-engine turboprop transport and trainer aircraft, was a vital asset to the RAF during the mid-20th century. Its versatility made it an essential component of the RAF's fleet, serving various roles including maritime patrol, communication, and air-to-air refueling. The image captures the Varsity in its element, soaring through the sky with an elegant grace. The aircraft's distinctive twin engines, positioned on the wings, generate a powerful thrust that propels it forward. The cockpit is adorned with an array of instruments and controls, reflecting the advanced technology of the time. The Varsity's design was a testament to the ingenuity of British aviation engineering. Its ability to carry a large payload and accommodate up to 18 passengers made it an ideal choice for various missions. Furthermore, its advanced avionics and robust construction ensured its reliability and durability. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of the RAF and its commitment to maintaining a cutting-edge fleet. The Vickers Varsity T.1 served the RAF with distinction for several decades, contributing significantly to the organization's success and legacy in the realm of military aviation.
