Show your framed MMJ show posters

I'm not real big on using lighter color outer mattes but after seeing Vandemusser's Tenn Theatre beauty, I'm thinking of changing my Reno T5.  Probably going to reverse them and go with the grey outer, and brown inner.

Glad you posted that man, it got me thinking!

Thanks for the compliment! Honestly, I usually base the outer mat on what mats the frame shop has that are a reasonably close match. I also tend to pick darker colors, but they didn't have anything that was a close match to the magenta on the poster... so I took a shot with the light grey. I was surprised at how nice it looked. I may also start shifting more of them to a lighter-colored outer mat based on how this one turned out.

nice posters! I'm looking fwd to getting a proper frame job on this year's MPP poster.  Thinking of using framebridge.com; has anyone used them before?

Nice job Wicked! 


My framer gave me a nice pointer a while back about taking pics of my framed posters before I hang them.  He said to remove the glass before taking the pic so there's no glare or reflections. I've had some glare even with Masterpiece/Museum glass but his advice has worked every time.

I couldn't get these framed soon enough. Cost $15 dollars to do both and I'm really happy with how they turned out.

popped in to see if there was any info on the posters from last night and tonight... excited to see tonights poster, can't wait

here's my frameup from the port chester run in '12

Just picked these beauties up from the frame shop yesterday. Played a very dangerous/expensive game. After scoring a foil on the first night, I decided if there were any foils left, I get one. Ended up completing the set, and they are beautiful!

Thank you! First posters I've had professionally framed (and I've got a lot of posters sitting in tubes...) and I couldn't be happier with them.

Forgive me butting in, but you really should get those posters out of the tubes and into a portfolio or flat file.  Atoya 18 x 24 portfolios from Amazon work for most posters.

Not butting in at all. Thanks for the tip! Wish I thought of that instead of investing in a bunch of poster tubes a few months ago. Thanks again!

I love those portfolio things. I need a new one soon.

My problem is what to do with all the random 19" x 25" or other larger sized posters that I take off my walls. I've got a handful that just don't fit in the 18x24 portfolio

Yeah, I sucked it up and bought a GIANT portfolio for the oversize prints.  I believe it was a 24 x 36 presentation case from here:

I got 2 refill packs for a total of $267.  Looks like its out of stock now.

If you're serious about keeping prints nice, and you have way too many like some of us, keep an eye on your local Craigslist for someone selling a flat file.  I checked my local c-lists religiously for a couple of years before I got lucky.  Flat files can be stupid expensive, but you can lucky with someone selling one on the cheap.  I think I paid $75 for one that would retail close to $1K.

I love that Vegas poster on so many fronts...

Of course I had to get both posters. This one was a DIY job courtesy of AmericanFrame.com. One for the home and one for the office!

I bought a matte cutter and started doing my own framing with cheap frames at Michaels.  This ended up running me about $50/poster and was pretty fun.  Here's my Tennessee Theater print + Widespread Panic - St. Augustine 2014 Fall and Phish NYE 2014/5 Miami







I've still got my 3 from Chicago Theater that I don't know what to do with.  Framing store quoted me at like $650 and that's if we don't get creative with it.  Anyone frame that set yet?

[parkervb]

I would suggest looking at Framebridge for better pricing than that. Limited mat color options but great quality work and lower prices than a framing shop.

Can't wait to get those two from Iroquois framed and up on the wall. already have the spot picked out.

We have a guy we like to use bc he always ends up at the same shows we go to. I'm sure we could find someone cheaper but he does a great job and he's a cool guy so we like to go back to him. He usually buys 2-3 posters at the shows he goes to and has the extras to sell.
