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.

John Profumo, Minister of War, at Sandown Park racing in 1963
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant era of the 1960s. The image captures a momentous occasion as John Profumo, the esteemed Minister of War during that time, indulges in one of Britain's beloved pastimes - horse racing. Dressed impeccably in his conservative attire befitting his position and stature, Profumo exudes an air of leadership and confidence as he takes center stage amidst the electrifying atmosphere at Sandown Park racecourse. Surrounded by fellow enthusiasts eagerly observing the thrilling spectacle unfolding before them, it is evident that this event was not just about leisure but also served as a platform for political networking. As Prime Minister Harold Macmillan's trusted confidant and influential figure within the Conservative Party, Profumo's presence at such events carried significant weight. Beyond being a mere spectator enjoying horseracing’s excitement and elegance, this snapshot symbolizes his ability to effortlessly navigate both worlds – politics and leisure – with grace. This evocative photograph serves as a reminder of an era when politicians were more accessible to their constituents outside formal settings. It encapsulates not only Profumo's personal interests but also highlights how public figures could connect with ordinary citizens through shared passions like horse racing. Preserved by Daily Mirror's archives and now available through Memory Lane Prints, this timeless image invites us to reflect on an intriguing chapter
