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
Engine No. 4498 the Sir Nigel Gresley, a magnificent steam locomotive, is captured in this nostalgic print as it undergoes a thorough sprucing up in the sheds at Thornaby. The year is 1972, and excitement fills the air as preparations are made for the highly anticipated Teeside Rail Exhibition on September 9th. In this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, we witness an era when steam engines were still an integral part of public transport. With its gleaming exterior and billowing smokestack, Engine No. 4498 stands tall as a symbol of power and elegance amidst the bustling railway sheds. The image evokes memories of a bygone era when trains were not just means of transportation but also sources of wonderment and adventure. As one man diligently works to clean every nook and cranny, his dedication reflects the pride associated with maintaining these mighty machines. The rails leading into the distance hint at countless journeys undertaken by this historic locomotive - carrying passengers across vast landscapes or transporting goods to distant destinations. Its unknown age adds an air of mystery, leaving us to ponder all the stories it could tell if only given voice. This photograph preserves a moment frozen in time - capturing both the beauty and functionality that defined our railways during their heyday.
