Asleep Club Sleeping Tired Unemployed
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
In this intriguing print titled "Idle Workers Club" we are transported back to December 1981, where we meet the infamous club member, Lazy Chris Marshall. The image captures a moment of both unusual humor and underlying social commentary. As our eyes wander across the frame, we find ourselves immersed in a scene that speaks volumes about the challenges faced by unemployed individuals during the 1980s. Chris Marshall, with his tired expression and slumbering posture, represents countless others who found themselves out of work for an extended period. The composition exudes a sense of camaraderie within this unique club as other members can be seen scattered around the room engaged in various activities or simply resting like Chris. Despite their idleness, there is an undeniable bond among these individuals who share similar struggles. This photograph serves as a reminder of how unemployment affects people's lives beyond just financial strain; it takes its toll on one's self-esteem and motivation. However, amidst the somberness lies a touch of light-heartedness that invites us to reflect on society's perception of laziness versus genuine hardship. Memory Lane Prints has skillfully captured this moment from history through Mirrorpix's lens. It encourages us to contemplate not only the individual stories behind each face but also prompts us to consider how far we have come in addressing unemployment issues since then.
