Author Topic: poster frames for home use (?) Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-20-2010 12:19 PM                        I use American Frame Company. The nice thing about them is that they sell by the inch, so you specify exactly what your poster size is 27 x(40 or 41) and get those exact pieces and the hardware to put them together and hooks to hang them. The pieces are slotted with enough width to slide in the poster on a piece of standard foam core and a 1/16th inch plexy cover. AND, as you can see, they come in a nice variety of finishes and colors. For some reason the site doesn't indicate that you can buy them by the piece, (the site is selling "kits") but you can. Best to talk to them on the phone -- nice people too.  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under!

Prices come down a bit if you buy in quantity (I bought 20 24x36 and 10 27x41 at that time). Also, here's a link to another older thread about frames, just to see more suggestions: Super-cheap 1-sheet frames?  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Jorgenson Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1002 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: Feb 2005 posted 01-20-2010 10:28 PM                        quote: Mike Schindler I get mine from Michaels craft stores. Ok, I'll check them out too. quote: Paul Mayer here's a link to another older thread about frames, just to see more suggestions somehow that one didn't come up in my search, I wonder why? ... anyway, thanks for linking to it. I still would've bumped up this one before that one as this is from 2000 & that's from 2006.  |  IP: Logged
