Life can be hectic for Willie MacLean. In there course of one day
Life can be hectic for Willie MacLean. In there course of one day, he could need all this gear.
For 25 -year-old Willie is a Jack-of-all-trades in Castlebay on the island of Barra, Inverness-shire.
He could be working away quietly in his butcherOs shop and have to serve a passing motorist with petrol or a tourist might want to hire WillieOs taxi to see the local beauty spots.
If there were a fire, Willie would be called out to help tackle it or if a ship was in trouble he would help in the lifeboat crew.
If anyone is injured, the would also drive the ambulance.
October 1974

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.
