Beard Customs Festive Funny Police Presents Santa Suit
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 hilarious and unexpected moment captured in December 1982, we see two London policemen engaged in an amusing conversation with none other than Santa Claus himself. The scene unfolds outside the iconic Harrods Store, where Santa had found himself in a bit of trouble for obstruction. However, instead of reprimanding him, these good-natured officers seem to be thoroughly enjoying their encounter with the festive figure. Santa's intentions were innocent enough - he was offering passersby the opportunity to pose alongside him while his colleague snapped pictures. It's evident that this unconventional approach to spreading Christmas cheer caught the attention of both locals and law enforcement alike. As onlookers chuckled at this unusual sight, it became clear that even those tasked with upholding the law couldn't resist getting into the holiday spirit. This photograph by Alisdair Macdonald captures not only a humorous moment but also highlights how traditions can sometimes take unexpected turns. With his long white beard and unmistakable red suit, Santa Claus has always been associated with joy and presents during Christmas time. Yet here we witness him entangled in a comical situation involving police officers who are usually more accustomed to enforcing laws rather than posing for photographs. Decades later, this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints continues to bring smiles as it reminds us that even those responsible for maintaining order can appreciate some lightheartedness during the festive season.
