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
This powerful and poignant poster from World War 1, dating back to 1915, serves as a stark reminder of the events that unfolded in Scarborough during this tumultuous period in history. The town had been mercilessly bombarded by the Germans earlier in the war, leaving a lasting impact on its residents and infrastructure.
The poster features a striking image of Britannia standing strong amidst the chaos of war, with the words "REMEMBER SCARBOROUGH!" emblazoned across the top. It is a call to arms, urging citizens to never forget the devastation that was wrought upon their town and to rally together in support of their country.
Recruitment posters like these played a crucial role in mobilizing troops and boosting morale during WW1. They served as a constant reminder of the sacrifices being made on both sides of the conflict and encouraged individuals to do their part for king and country.
As we reflect on this historical artifact, we are reminded of the resilience and courage shown by those who lived through such turbulent times. It stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of Scarborough and all those who were affected by the ravages of war.
