23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 see museum technician Richard Miller diligently working to restore the grandeur of a giant auyetephone. This remarkable instrument, built by Parsons with the intention of enhancing musical performances in large concert halls, had unfortunately suffered from some unsightly dents over time. Located at Shipley Art Gallery for restoration purposes, the auyetephone is receiving expert care and attention before it makes its triumphant return to the Municipal Museum of Science and Industry in Newcastle come October 1975. Its presence will undoubtedly add an enchanting touch to the museum's collection. The image captures Miller's dedication as he delicately works on knocking out each dent, ensuring that every detail is meticulously restored. His expertise shines through as he carefully handles this extraordinary piece of musical history. Transporting us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1970s entertainment scene, this photograph not only showcases an incredible instrument but also serves as a reminder of how music has always been intertwined with our cultural heritage. The significance of instruments like these cannot be understated; they are gateways into worlds where melodies transcend boundaries and emotions find their voice. This stunning print by NCJ invites us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind such instruments and those who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to preserve them for generations to come.
