31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
George Best, the legendary footballer with a heart of gold, brightens up the day for kids from a Children's Home outside the Imperial Hotel in Blackpool. In this heartwarming snapshot captured on 20th January 1970, Best is seen launching his new soccer shoe that proudly carries his signature on the side. The children couldn't contain their excitement as they eagerly modeled the shoes while donning complete Manchester United strips. Best made sure each child received not only a pair of these special shoes but also an entire United kit to match. Their smiles radiate pure joy and gratitude, showcasing how much this gesture meant to them. Beyond being an exceptional footballer, George Best proved he had a genuine connection with young fans.
