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 print titled "Illegal street trader Kit is on the move to evade police on 31st January 1981" we are transported back to the vibrant streets of 1980s UK. The image captures a bustling scene, with a medium-sized group of people from various age ranges and occupations gathered around a barrow filled with an assortment of fresh fruits. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the world of small business and street traders that were an integral part of UK social history during this era. Kit, the central figure in this photograph, exudes determination as he navigates through the crowd while evading police presence. His quick movements and strategic thinking reflect the challenges faced by these illegal street traders who often had to outsmart authorities in order to sustain their livelihoods. The atmosphere depicted here is one of energy and resilience, as individuals engage in commerce despite facing potential legal repercussions. It serves as a reminder of how ordinary people found creative ways to make ends meet amidst economic hardships. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this image not only documents a specific moment in time but also encapsulates broader themes such as entrepreneurship, community spirit, and defiance against societal constraints. As we observe Kit's determined stride through the busy streets on that fateful day - January 31st, 1981 - we are reminded of the rich tapestry woven by those who shaped our history through their everyday struggles and triumphs.
