Core202 Parking Meter Pointing Comedian
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 photo print, we are transported back to November 1977, as the legendary comedian and actor John Cleese graces Newcastle with his presence. Pictured here during the launch of his book "Fawlty Towers". Cleese's charismatic smile hints at a man who is far from the infamous Basil Fawlty character he brought to life on screen. The question arises: Is there truly a Basil Fawlty lurking deep within John Cleese? The answer, according to the star himself, is an emphatic "Not at all". As one of the masterminds behind the iconic British sitcom, Cleese effortlessly portrayed the bumbling hotel owner with impeccable comedic timing. However, off-screen, he proves that his talent lies in versatility rather than embodying any particular character. This snapshot captures not only Cleese's undeniable charm but also showcases a glimpse into an era long gone – the vibrant 1970s. With its core202 style and nostalgic elements like pointing gestures and parking meters in view, it serves as a time capsule for fans of both comedy and history alike. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints' dedication to capturing moments that transcend time itself, this photograph allows us to reflect on John Cleese's remarkable career while appreciating him as more than just Basil Fawlty. It reminds us that true actors possess an ability to transform themselves completely while leaving their most memorable characters behind them.
