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 photograph from May 11th, 1963, we are transported back to the iconic Wembley Stadium for a momentous Rugby League Final between Wakefield Trinity and Wigan. The image captures the electrifying atmosphere as both teams line up on the pitch before kick-off, ready to battle it out for glory in front of thousands of passionate fans. However, what truly sets this photo apart is the presence of a distinguished guest - Lord Bernard Montgomery. As an esteemed military leader and national hero from World War II, his appearance adds an air of grandeur to this already monumental occasion. Standing tall amidst the players, he graciously extends his hand to each member of both teams in a symbolic gesture that transcends sport. The medium-sized group of athletes exude determination and focus as they prepare themselves mentally for what promises to be an intense clash on the field. Their faces reveal a mix of nerves and excitement as they exchange pleasantries with Lord Montgomery – a rare opportunity that surely left an indelible mark on their memories. This photograph not only encapsulates a significant sporting event but also serves as a poignant reminder of how sports can bring people together across different walks of life. It immortalizes a moment when rugby league legends stood side by side with one another and shared common ground with an influential figure who symbolized courage, leadership, and unity. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded once again why sports hold such power -
