How does everyone frame their posters and setlists together?

Here's one from many pages back. I had the same question.

Also, if I'm going to hang posters in the basement, with no direct sunlight, does it seem like standard glass will suffice? It seems like 94% UV protection makes about $200 to frame a single poster that wouldn't sell for over $150. Well, most of mine wouldn't. If someone ever wills me a 'Blackie' or a Chicago 98, I'll gladly use UV glass on them.

I've had many posters hanging in my basement for several years with no issues. I just used standard plexiglass.

Looks like the mirror's frame in the poster. Very cool.

Those look great

Can I ask which glass selection you usually go with on Art to Frames?

The price between the 94% UV glass vs the Museum glass is significant, so wondering how much it matters

I've always used American Frame for framing my posters and I've been really happy with the UV Non Glare acrylic. It's not glass but the price is pretty good and you get the UV protection and no annoying reflections from windows/lights etc.

Frame matches the lettering. Looks cool.

Just curious, how much did these run you each? I've been messing around with their custom framing wizard and I'm getting two different prices for the same size posters, same frame, same glass, the only differences being different color mats. And when I choose "no print," under the paper type, the price goes up, not down or remaining the same. Tried emailing them a few weeks ago, but never got a response.

I have been going with very simple, thin frames lately.

True. Merit to both ways. I like the poster to speak for itself sometimes. Other times a good frame job works wonders to enhance the print.
I feel like you should cut a furry rug or blanket to extend king kongs arm down the wall. Maybe like his arm is busting through the wall. Just for kicks.
Fun!

I definitely agree. The white top mat with the blue highlight lets the image shine more. The blue top mat almost dulls the image.

I just had a frame shop open up right across from my office...going to be spending some money
