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 from Sheffield City Archives showcases a significant piece of history - the Independent Order of Rechabites, Temperance Knowledge Examination certificate awarded to Sister Marjorie Barnard in 1937. The image exudes an air of nostalgia and takes us back to a time when temperance societies played a vital role in promoting abstinence from alcohol. The certificate itself is beautifully designed, reflecting the importance placed on this achievement within the organization. Its intricate details and elegant typography speak volumes about the dedication and commitment required to attain such recognition. Sister Marjorie Barnard's name proudly adorns the document, symbolizing her personal triumph over temptation and her unwavering support for temperance ideals. In 1937, joining a temperance society like the Independent Order of Rechabites was not only an act of personal conviction but also a way to contribute to societal change. These organizations aimed to educate individuals about the harmful effects of alcohol consumption while fostering camaraderie among members who shared similar values. This print serves as both a historical artifact and a reminder of how social movements have shaped our communities throughout time. It invites us to reflect on our own choices regarding alcohol consumption while honoring those who championed sobriety during an era when it was not always popular or easy.
