Eddie and I were searching for some way of entering the top section before hanging, so we can use the unused space for added display.
We were searching for sliding front or side shaped moulds, maybe the backboard pulled off? But that wouldn’t make any sense.

I’m strongly considering re colouring the frame, or at least the oak mount, possibly gold touch the plaster frame.
Years ago I wrote an article ‘To Frame or not to Frame’ for Period Style Magazine, you can see it under ‘Media’.
