Milkman Post

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.

In an era when milk was delivered fresh to your doorstep, this unique structure served as a silent butler, safeguarding precious deliveries. The image showcases a quaint wooden cabinet seamlessly integrated into the exterior of a charming home. Its purpose? To securely store bottles of milk and letters awaiting their recipients' eager hands. This ingenious design exemplifies the simplicity and efficiency that defined everyday life during that bygone era. A dapper milkman, dressed in his traditional uniform, can be seen approaching the door with his trusty delivery crate in hand. The anticipation on his face hints at the importance placed on ensuring households received their daily supply of wholesome dairy goodness. This photograph not only captures a specific moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how communities once relied on personal connections for essential services like mail and milk delivery. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when neighbors knew each other by name and small gestures like these created bonds within neighborhoods.
