    Okay...how about a little help here. This is the next one up in queue. It's one of my favorite posters in collection and my only Miles Tsang. It is also probably the best DMB show I've seen in this century (out of about 30+). Any ideas on colors or styles? Is the coloring so unique that mats won't go well? Should I try to get a patterned frame and leave it at that? Opinions are appreciated.


    Great poster. I think a black frame with a mat to match the light blue would look good.
    I like that. I was thinking about that fire orange in the middle too.. I think having two mats might be too much for this poster.
    If the 2nd mat was white it might be ok. Isn't there a framing site where you can play around with ideas and it gives you a visual? I thought I remember someone posting that on here.
    Please post this sucker once you decide and get it done!
    Good point. I think it's American Framers that you can upload your photo and play around with it. I'm heading there now...

    I think you could go 2 mats with a black frame. I'd go with 2 shades of blue-ish green or 2 shades of pink-ish orange depending on what I thought looked best with trial. (Leaning toward blues already). The shades should be close together but one slightly darker than the other. Darker one the top mat. Just my opinion. There's lots of variation to play with there. Beautiful poster!

    Another good suggestion. But darker one on top? Don't you think that would blend a little bit too much with the black frame?

    Edit - I get it... if it's blue-green then it will contrast the black even if it's the darker one on top.

    Thanks! I like this poster, but it's probably my least favorite of the 7 I own, but I love it framed now. I really lucked out with the matte, looks even better in person.

    That's cool! The matte and frame really let the print be the focal point. Very nice!

    Picture isn't great. Looks really nice in person. Simple and clean. The mat is the same color as the background behind the skeleton/people/soldiers. This the last one I had done with the Michaels $79 coupon.

    I've thought about framing my huge PJ20 poster that they gave away at that show, but had no clue how pricey that would be.

    What I've discovered here is that white posters look great with a white frame, when offset with a color in between. I love the way the NYC Pendelton and the Tampa 16 poster look in particular. I need to start getting white frames.

    Is that a valuable poster? I would consider mounting it and making a billboard instead of framing it.

    Picked these up today:


    Double matted, black on pink.


    Double matted, black on red. Had a hard time choosing a mat color for this one. Red worked really well and since the Addison stop at Wrigley is on the red line, Wrigley Field has the famous red marquee, and the Cubs have red in their uniform, it seemed fitting.


    My framer scanned & reproduced the back of the Faile print and put it in a sleeve on the back of the frame.
