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
This print takes us back to the year 1933, capturing a slice of history at The Oaks station in Bolton, United Kingdom. Formerly known as the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, this station was now under the ownership of the London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS). The image showcases the down platform of the station, nestled between Bolton and Bromley Cross. It offers a glimpse into an era when rail transport was at its peak, connecting communities across Lancashire and Yorkshire. The tracks stretch out into the distance, symbolizing endless possibilities for travel and exploration. Intriguingly, this photograph also captures a proposed site for a pump near The Oaks station on that fateful day of August 4th. This detail sparks our imagination about what purpose this pump would serve within the railway infrastructure. Preserved by Imagination Works and now housed in the National Railway Museum (NRM), this snapshot serves as a reminder of how vital railways were to Britain's transportation system during that time. It transports us back to an age where steam trains ruled supreme, evoking nostalgia for those who remember or inspiring curiosity in those discovering it anew. Step into history with this remarkable print from NRM - witness The Oaks station standing proudly amidst its surroundings while contemplating all that has changed since that summer day in 1933.
