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 The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to the glorious era of football in the 1970s. In this historic snapshot, we see none other than Jimmy Greaves, one of England's most legendary footballers, captured in his prime during 1972. Greaves' charismatic presence is undeniable as he stands confidently on the pitch, exuding both skill and determination. His iconic jersey proudly displays the emblem of his beloved team, symbolizing a time when loyalty ran deep within the sport. This image serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era where football was pure and untainted by commercialism. As we gaze upon this photograph, it transports us to a different time - a time when stadiums echoed with roaring crowds and players were revered for their talent rather than their paychecks. It evokes memories of passionate fans filling every seat, eagerly anticipating each kick and goal. The monochromatic tones add depth to this already powerful image, emphasizing its historical significance. It reminds us that while years have passed since Greaves graced the field with his extraordinary skills, his legacy lives on through photographs like these. For any sports enthusiast or lover of nostalgia alike, this print encapsulates not only an incredible moment in sporting history but also represents an entire generation's love affair with soccer. It serves as a timeless reminder that some things are simply too precious to be forgotten or overshadowed by modern-day distractions
