Boat Boats Remember When River 1973 Paddlewheel Supplement
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
This print takes us back to the nostalgic era of 1973, capturing the majestic PS John H Amos paddlewheel tugboat gracefully gliding down the river. Built in Scotland in 1931, this remarkable vessel holds a significant place in maritime history as the last paddlewheel tug constructed for private owners. Named after the esteemed Secretary to the Commissioners, John Hetherington Amos, this steam-powered beauty pays homage to an influential figure. Now under the ownership of Medway Maritime Trust, it stands as a testament to our rich naval heritage. The image showcases not only a magnificent boat but also transports us through time. It serves as a reminder of when rivers were bustling with activity and paddlewheel tugs played an integral role in transportation. The sight of this elegant vessel evokes memories of bygone days when life moved at a slower pace and simpler pleasures were cherished. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported into an enchanting world where boats like PS John H Amos reigned supreme on waterways. It is a visual supplement that sparks curiosity about our past and invites contemplation on how far we have come in terms of transport technology. Teesside Archive has once again preserved history through their lens, allowing us to relish moments from yesteryears that would otherwise fade away. This print encapsulates both nostalgia and admiration for these iconic vessels that shaped our maritime legacy.
