So I just brought 7 posters to Michael's and the total (at a 50% off discount - new store) cost is about $523.00. I am getting spacers, no matte, on uv protected non glare glass frames with basic black borders.
Whew - pricey but worth it!
I saw some pics of the colored mattes and I now questions whether I made the right move - I think the colored mattes look s hot as hell!!!!
*jaw drops* WTF?! $523?!?! WITH A DISCOUNT?!!?
Sorry dude, I think you blew a lot of money for them to put together a frame... I bought all my stuff from Micheals (minus glass, screw the uv stuff, i went to lowes) and paid about $30-$40 a poster. And I did 5 so.. max $200 for 5. What struck me with yours was that I did the same thing, black borders, spacers, and glass, just not uv protect. I don't plan to hang them under the sun, soo...

Finally made time to take pics of my stuff. Spurred by picking up a couple from the frame shop today. Now I just have to find the $ to frame the other 15-20 that i have sitting around...

WOW these are all so nice! I have Cleveland coming and I'm definatly excited now to take it in and have it framed, they really look so nice.
Oh no! I've always teased my friends on being "poster crazies" and I can feel the addiction already...wish I had it back in the day...oh well it's never to late
And just think- I got the philly '98 framed for under $25 and that was by a professional
can you please tell if these were done at like a nationwide chain or a specific place in your home town? i went to ac moore and michaels and it was $70 minimum for professionals
That NEOCON set is the best I've seen! Wow!
What is in that little window at the bottom there, though? Looks like a bit of writing.
It's the definition of Neoconservatism...it reads as follows:
Ne . o . con . ser . va . tism (n.)
An intellectual and political movement in favor of political, economic, and social conservatism that arose in opposition to the perceived liberalism of the 1960's: "The neo-conservatism of the 1980's is a replay of the New Conservatism of the 1950's, which was itself a replay of the New Era philosophy of the 1920's"

Ohh! Nicely done! I'm still kicking myself for already having my frame pieces (ordered last year and still not put together!) because I'd love to do a matting job like that.

It wasn't cheap, but I'm damn happy with the way it turned out.

Had them framed at a place called Crafts 2000. It's owned by the national chain Pat Cattan's. I was able to get the philly and the brisbane framed with scrap mat's so that saved a ton of $$ right there.
Those look fantastic! The red frame was a beautiful choice, and that metallic one for the tour poster is just perfect! The texture of it goes so well with the blocks in the drawing. Very nicely done Do we owe these compliments to your aesthetics, or that of your framer?

Thanks!! The LA2 poster was pretty cool. I still have one more from SF to get framed. I decided on the frame color, but I got the it framed at Michaels.
Those are awesome!! Where did you get those done and how much???
I got 'em done through framesbymail.com. The LA2 cost about $35, SF1 about $55. Then added about $10 for shipping. Total was around $100. I found it a little cheaper than americanframe.com, and for most of the frames, they have more colors.
