Clerks Electric Employed Hundred Off Ice Telegraph
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
Step back in time to the year 1900 with this print of the Telegraph Office at the Central Telegraph Office in London. In this one room alone, around a hundred telegraph clerks are hard at work, surrounded by historical electric equipment that was cutting-edge for its time.
The image captures a moment in history when communication was undergoing a revolution, with telegraphs being sent and received at lightning speed across great distances. The sheer number of clerks employed in this bustling office is a testament to the importance and demand for efficient communication during this era.
As you study the details of the photograph, you can almost hear the clacking of typewriters and buzzing of telegraph machines as messages are transmitted back and forth. Each clerk plays a vital role in ensuring that information reaches its destination accurately and promptly.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers a fascinating glimpse into how communications were managed over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and efficiency, while also highlighting the dedication and hard work of those who paved the way for modern telecommunications systems.
