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 poignant mourning fob holds the memories of two brave soldiers from the Sherwood Foresters (Notts. & Derby Regiment) who made the ultimate sacrifice during the First World War. The first photograph features 50170 Private William Miller, who died on April 9, 1917, at the young age of 31. His loss was deeply felt, and his name is etched in history on the Ypres/Menin Gate Memorial, Panels 39 and 41. The second photograph captures the image of 201791 Private W.B. Miller, who tragically lost his life on June 24, 1917, at just 21 years old. His final resting place is the Maroc British Cemetery in Grenay, where he lies in Grave II.E.4. The mourning fob, a commemorative piece of wear, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these two brave men and the countless others who gave their lives during the First World War. Their stories, like countless others, continue to inspire us with their courage and resilience in the face of adversity. This touching keepsake is a testament to the enduring bond between families, communities, and the fallen heroes who have left an indelible mark on history.
