    Yeah, thanks. Fuck that is awesome. The Pitt and Klausen are really great frame jobs in totally different ways. Your background really shows in how you design these. Very nice!
    (And it makes me feel like I am not getting ripped off, although it also makes me feel like the standard framing jobs I get done for most of my stuff is boring!)

    You are doing just fine buddy...those are excellent prices.
    You're not getting ripped off at all.
    PLUS it sounds like you're supporting a good, local business too!!

    Very nice! I love that blue mat, really improves the poster. This artist is somehow not my thing, but you made it look great.
    Thanks! I wasn't sure what worked best until we played around with several different options. I agree the poster looks better with the blue.

    Got my Moline poster back today. Usually I take all my stuff to Michaels, but I thought I would support the local economy this time. Cost was about the same, just took 3 times as long. She talked me into an "inverse bevel" cut on the mattes so you wouldn't see any of white core. It adds a little depth element that is growing on me.

    Hey everyone, I have been reading through this thread to get some ideas for a signed Milwaukee poster that I recently won in a charity auction for the EB Foundation....and I am absolutely blown away by how awesome everyone's displays are! My new poster is at the frame shop now, so I'll upload photos here when I get it back....hopefully it looks half as good as some of the displays I have seen in this thread!

    In the meantime, though, I'm also looking for some ideas on how to best store and/or display signed books. As part of the same charity auction, I also have a couple of books signed by the band....and I'm not sure of the best way to display them or keep them in tip-top condition. Since the books are signed on the inside, I don't think I can simply place them in a shadow-box display. Here's an example of where they are signed:
    photo image.jpg
    So with that said, does anyone have any examples or ideas for something like this?

    Thanks for any feedback!!

    Question for all of you: Does anyone here do their own framing? I have many of my prints that I purchased a frame of equal size and VERY carefully inserted into the frame. I'm posting an example of my Wrigley hot dog.

    Whether you do or don't frame any posters this way, does anyone have any reason one shouldn't do this? I've taken posters out of frames that I have done like this and had no problems with them, but I was just wondering any risks associated with this method.

    This has allowed me to frame 8 or 9 prints for what it would have cost me to do 1 or 2, so that's why I have done it this way. I definitely appreciate the frame jobs many of you have had done though!

    I've had a couple of posters framed over the past couple years, problem is I have more to frame and not enough wall space...the misses doesn't want the whole house taken over, so I'm gaining momentum towards a man cave so I have all the wall space I want lol

    Got my Moline ap back last night from Michaels. I didn't want my ticket in the frame...wanted something more simple. I can't make up my mind if the green matte is bothering me though. Seems a bit loud for my living room. Wondering if I should have done the light brown like a few others I've seen? I could always change it someday I guess.

    Thank you. It was $160 something including tax. Michaels had a 60% + 20% discount going on at the time.

    I have it hanging on my living room wall now, and I couldn't stop looking at it earlier today. My girlfriend was laughing at me.

    I don't usually buy PJ posters from concerts I haven't been to, but I made the exception with Wrigley. This Cracker Jack poster is one of my favorites!
    Frames By Mail had a sale recently and I bought 2 more frames from them. I have a really cool large Barclays tour poster (not the ugly owls, a different one) and I'm going to frame the 12 song post cards from Lightning Bolt in one frame. I'll post the other pictures once I finish the projects.

    I don't know why this photo got squished, but you get the idea!

    That looks really nice. Frame compliments the print really well. So how does one get the bands signatures. There must be a story here

    Yeah, I'd probably need the 24 x 36 holder since a lot of my posters are bigger. You guys think something like one of the links below would work and use some acid-free paper I think it is to separate the posters?
