31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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.

1. Title: "Royal Navy's Stinson V-77 Reliant I FK818: A Lend-Lease Contribution to the UK's Aviation Fleet" This evocative photograph captures the Royal Navy's Stinson V-77 Reliant I, registration number FK818, during a training session in 1943. The Stinson V-77 Reliant, also known as the AT-19 in the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF), was a single-engine, high-wing monoplane manufactured by the Stinson Aircraft Division of the Aviation Manufacturing Corporation in Wayne, Michigan. In response to the escalating demands of World War II, the UK placed an order for 500 of these versatile aircraft under the Lend-Lease program. The Stinson V-77 Reliant was a popular choice due to its reliability, ease of maintenance, and adaptability as a trainer, liaison, and observation aircraft. The Stinson V-77 Reliant, with its distinctive silhouette and rounded canopy, is seen here in its Royal Navy livery, demonstrating the significant impact of US aid on the British military's aviation capabilities during the war. The photograph, taken on the 14th of June, 1943, is a testament to the crucial role that international cooperation and Lend-Lease played in the Allied forces' success. As the Stinson V-77 Reliant I, FK818, takes to the skies, it symbolizes the unwavering commitment of the United States and its allies to support each other in the face of adversity, ultimately contributing to the eventual victory in World War II.
