23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 9th of October 1976, where a sea of passionate Rangers football fans have descended upon Birmingham to witness the highly anticipated Aston Villa v Rangers match. The atmosphere is electric as supporters proudly wave their flags, draped in the iconic blue and white colors of Glasgow Rangers. Little did they know that this thrilling encounter would be marred by an unexpected turn of events. As tensions escalated on the pitch, a pitch invasion abruptly halted the game, leaving both teams and spectators bewildered. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when emotions ran high and rivalries were put on full display. The image captures not just the fervor of these dedicated fans but also serves as a testament to the intense passion that football ignites within communities across borders. It symbolizes how sport has an unparalleled ability to unite people from different walks of life under one common goal - supporting their beloved team. Decades later, this photograph continues to evoke nostalgia for those who were present that day or hold cherished memories associated with Scottish football history. It stands as a reminder that even amidst moments of trouble or disappointment, true sportsmanship prevails and leaves an indelible mark on our collective memory.
