Demolition Factory Jobs Rubble Tailor 1984 John Collier
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 from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the year 1984, where Union Official Albert Burton and Freda Holmes stand in front of their former workplace - the Queen of clothing factories in Middlesbrough. Once known as the John Collier works, formerly Prices Tailors, this iconic building holds countless memories for these two individuals. As they gaze upon the remnants of what was once a bustling factory, now reduced to rubble and debris, one can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia mixed with melancholy. The image perfectly encapsulates the changing times and economic shifts that characterized the 1980s. Albert Burton's presence exudes pride and determination as he stands tall amidst the ruins. His role as a union official highlights his commitment to fighting for workers' rights during an era marked by job losses and industrial decline. Beside him stands Freda Holmes, her expression reflecting both sadness for what has been lost and gratitude for shared experiences within those walls. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how industries rise and fall over time; it is a testament to resilience in face of adversity. It captures not just bricks and mortar but also stories untold – tales of hard work, camaraderie among colleagues, and dreams pursued within those very walls. Memory Lane Prints allows us to glimpse into history through powerful images like this one – frozen moments that evoke emotions long after they were captured.
