    The frame is blue. Looks great in person. The photo doesn't do it justice.

    Looks good! If you don't mind me asking, how much did it run? I've never been a poster guy but I liked this one and want to get one and frame it.

    what's cool about this is, you didn't go overboard with the dimensions of the frame. I feel that is important on this particular print because it makes it still appear to look like a cracker jack "box". You kept the rectangular aspects on the framing around the poster "box", and so it kicks ass. :thumbup:

    Thanks. The frame has an antique kind of yellow stripe in between the blue paint. I really like it. I'm glad you see it as a Cracker Jack box too.

    Thanks for the gold matte ideas all. I was definitely unsure on how I wanted to handle it until I saw those. It's currently with the framers, fingers crossed.

    Mine was done with a wood frame that is pretty close to the look of the old baseball bats from the Ernie Banks era:

    Thanks! I love it too. Everything else just doesn't feel "right"... Everytime I pass this I smile and think I made the right decision (no offense to anyone else!)

    I have the framing info saved that i sent to a few others. Pm me if you'd like it :)

    My wife is getting my poster framed for my birthday next week. She originally didnt agree with the yellow mat but then I showed her the finished product from this board and she loved it. Thanks for posting!
