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.

Beat the Heat - Co-operative Bank Staff Find Relief in Shorts during Newport's Scorching Summer of '90
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In the sweltering summer of 1990, as temperatures soared and a heatwave gripped Newport, staff at The Co-operative Bank in John Frost Square found themselves feeling the burn behind their counters. Faced with an unusual workplace challenge, these dedicated employees were granted special dispensation to ditch their traditional bank uniforms and don shorts instead. Captured by Rose from Memory Lane Prints, this nostalgic print transports us back to that scorching August day. In it, we see three counter staff members - Steve Gillham, June Butler (standing at the center), and Monica Tedaldi - keeping cool amidst a sea of paperwork and bustling customers. The image serves as a reminder of how working conditions can be affected by extreme weather conditions. As Wales experienced an unprecedented heatwave during that summer season, health and safety concerns prompted this unique adaptation within the banking industry. This snapshot not only showcases the resilience and adaptability of these bank tellers but also highlights their commitment to serving customers despite challenging circumstances. It captures a moment frozen in time when even established norms could be temporarily set aside for practicality's sake. Decades later, this photograph stands as a testament to both the camaraderie among colleagues enduring extraordinary situations together and our ability to find creative solutions when faced with unexpected challenges.
