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
Step back in time to the summer of 1911 with this print from Sheffield City Archives. The image showcases a vibrant railway poster titled 'Great Central Railway: A Holiday in the Country, Dean and Dawsons express excursion to Heath. ' This nostalgic piece of history takes us on a journey through Yorkshire's picturesque landscapes and highlights the excitement of train travel during that era. The poster advertises various departure points including Sheffield Victoria Station, Darnall, Woodhouse, Beighton, Killamarsh, and more. It captures the essence of an idyllic countryside getaway as families eagerly plan their excursions to Heath - a popular holiday destination at the time. This remarkable print is an original artifact preserved by Sheffield Libraries (y14002), offering us a glimpse into a bygone era when railway posters played a vital role in promoting leisure travel. It reflects not only the beauty of Sheffield but also serves as a testament to Dean and Dawson Ltd. , prominent travel agents responsible for organizing these memorable trips. As we admire this historic snapshot, let our imaginations wander back to those simpler times when trains were lifelines connecting people with new adventures. Join us on this visual voyage through time as we celebrate both the artistry behind railway posters and their significance in shaping our collective memories.
