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 photograph captures the spirit of unity and resilience during a tumultuous period in history. Taken around 1944, it showcases the NaFI Group No. 3 Camp, a gathering of remarkable young women from the Navy Army & Air Force Institute (NaFI). These brave souls dedicated themselves to providing unwavering support and essential services to those serving on the frontlines. In this group shot, we witness their camaraderie as they stand shoulder to shoulder, exuding strength and determination. Their faces reflect both youthful enthusiasm and an indomitable spirit that defied the challenges of war. The George Garland Collection has preserved this precious moment in time, allowing us to glimpse into their world. The NaFI girls played a crucial role in boosting morale among servicemen by running canteens, organizing recreational activities, and offering much-needed respite from the hardships of conflict. This image serves as a poignant reminder of their selflessness and dedication amidst adversity. Housed at West Sussex Record Office under Ref. No. Garland N23280, this print is not for profit but rather serves as a testament to these extraordinary women's contributions during the 1940s war era. It stands as a tribute to all those who have served our country with honor and valor while highlighting how ordinary individuals can make an extraordinary impact in times of crisis.
