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
In this iconic photograph, Sir Tom Finney of Preston North End proudly holds aloft the Footballer of the Year trophy for the second time, cementing his status as one of the greatest footballers in British history. The image captures the moment of triumph and pride as Finney, with a beaming smile, raises the coveted award above his head in front of an adoring crowd. Finney, affectionately known as "The Preston Plumber" for his humble origins, began his professional football career with Preston North End in 1946. His exceptional talent and dedication quickly earned him recognition, and he went on to make his debut for the England national team in 1947. Over the next decade, Finney's skill and versatility as a winger or inside forward made him a key player for both Preston and England. The Footballer of the Year award, which was first presented in 1948, is considered one of the most prestigious individual honors in English football. Finney was the first player to win the award twice, achieving this feat in 1954 and 1957. This photograph, taken during the 1957 presentation ceremony, encapsulates the essence of Finney's remarkable footballing career and his enduring legacy as a beloved figure in the sport. Despite his many accolades, Finney remained grounded and humble throughout his life. He continued to support Preston North End and remained an inspiration to generations of football fans. This photograph serves as a testament to his unwavering passion for the game and his undeniable impact on British football.
