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.

Back Them Up!
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Stirring Call to Action: A Vintage WW2 Poster from the Battlefronts of Norway This evocative and powerful WW2 poster, titled "Back Them Up!," is a captivating snapshot of the intense and heroic actions taken by the British Commando forces during their raid on a German-held port in Norway in 1940. The poster, a colour photolithograph printed by Fosh and Cross Ltd and published by HMSO, transports us back to the heart of the conflict and the grit and determination of the Allied forces during the early days of World War II. The image depicts a daring Commando raid, with soldiers in action against the backdrop of a German-held port, engulfed in smoke and flames. The intensity of the scene is palpable, with the British Commandos, armed and focused, preparing to advance, while their comrades provide covering fire from the shore. The caption, "Back Them Up!" is a rallying cry, a call to action for the British people to support their troops in their fight against the Axis powers in Scandinavia. The poster is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the Allied forces during the early stages of the war, and serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers on the battlefront. The vibrant colours and dynamic composition of the poster make it a striking piece of historical art, and a valuable addition to any collection of WW2 memorabilia or military history. This poster, a relic from a bygone era, offers a glimpse into the past, and serves as a reminder of the courage and determination that defined the Allied forces during the tumultuous and uncertain days of the 1940s. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of standing together in times of conflict and adversity, and of the indomitable spirit of those who have fought to protect our freedoms and way of life.
