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 black and white vintage print takes us back to the swinging sixties, a time when rebellious spirits took to the high seas in pursuit of musical freedom. The photo features the iconic Pirate Radio Station ship Radio London 1965, affectionately known as the MV Galaxy. Anchored amidst vast waters, this floating haven became a symbol of defiance against mainstream broadcasting regulations. The image exudes an air of nostalgia as it captures the essence of an era defined by its counterculture movement. The Northcliffe Collection has masterfully preserved this historic moment, allowing us to witness firsthand the birthplace of pirate radio stations that revolutionized music broadcasting. With its towering masts and weathered exterior, the MV Galaxy stands proud as a beacon for all those seeking alternative sounds and unfiltered voices. This photograph transports us onto its deck, where DJs spun vinyl records while waves crashed against its hull. Henry Bush's lens skillfully captures both the grandeur and intimacy aboard this legendary vessel. It serves as a reminder that even in times when conformity seemed inevitable, there were pioneers who dared to challenge convention and bring about change through their passion for music. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to a time when pirate radio stations ruled the airwaves with their rebellious spirit and unwavering dedication to sharing great music with listeners across Britain's shores.
