framed poster thread

Thanks, Dave!

We certainly will... the last poster I got for her was a couple of years ago from Emek as well, but it was before she was such a huge SOAD fan... we didn't have wall space for it at the time but here's an older pic of that poster from the same framer:

The TOOL one is GORGEOUS!!!

This is my favorite EMEK poster:



His Bon Iver from the Santa Barbara Bowl back in '12...I didn't do THIS show, but did see Bon Iver at The Joint at The Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas a few weeks before this show & the poster was just okay:



I LOVED the EMEK as soon as I saw it & and was fortunate to pick one up in his online sale...I got #22 of 100.
I also bought an AP of his Coachella poster from this year:



I've got EMEK's Monster poster from Wrigley and the Portland poster waiting to be framed!!!
Some Day SOON

Daughter's Christmas present (note: resizing kinda compromised the integrity of these photos).

Unwrapped:



On her wall:



Nice red lacquer frame with a cool chunky floral-like design to it, and the poster is "floating" (i.e., on top of the mat) so that you see its edges. First time I've had one done this way, but it won't be the last.

:thumbup: BEAUTIFUL FRAME :thumbup:

What a cool Xmas present looks awesome

Thanks, guys. I went into the frame shop with a chunky brown lacquer frame (one that would look like cracker jacks) and more traditional mounting under a red or blue mat in mind, but my framers are really good at what they do, and I generally leave there with a much better frame job than what I had in mind before entering.

My new favorite print. Emek Wrigley floating on real brick, ivy leaves and the frame looks like the beams from Wrigley field. Great show and print deserves top treatment. Haha let me know what you think of the print and my Emek wall?

got your posters framed? post them up. heres mine

I would love to. I only own one poster. To save me the time of googling the best ways to frame a poster I would value your advice to help me frame my poster.

I purchased the london d face poster via 10c after the concert.

BTW where is the love for mym having mic probs live for the first time

This would depend on your budget...
I prefer to have mine professionally framed at a locally owned framing shop.
Many people in this thread like to use American Frame & do their own framing projects.
They have a tutorial and also some FAQ's that will walk you thru the steps...
Here's their website:

One other piece of advice...the COUPON prices that many "Big Box" framing stores offer are usually not a good value. Their prices are often way to high to begin with and I've heard of many instances where they have damaged posters.
Looking forward to seeing pictures of your finished project!!

Thank you for answering.

Is it strange that I for some reason I want to have my poster displayed?

Not at ALL...
Just take a look thru this thread & you'll see there are MANY folks that really love displaying their posters & frame jobs!!
You're among FRIENDS here!!

My thinking is that I would like to have it framed in glass hanging from the ceiling. This poster of the London concert struck me for some reason....
