White Whale back from the Framing Store! Awesome!!!!

Evening,

As I mentioned a few weeks ago I picked up one of my White Whales: An UnCut Entire Set of 1944 Gum Inc. American Beauties Non Sport Cards. With Archival Glass and prep it was only $90 and Nothing Touches the Sheet inside! I really like how the Antique Grainy, slightly off pink makes the Sheet Really Pop!

Now my biggest Dilemma is what is going to be Displaced...My Walls are FULL! :D:D I also collect Sci-Fi/Horror Movie Posters from the 50--90's and have 30 up already with 100 waiting in the wings!

Thanks

YeeHaw!

Neil

    as a sign of goodwill and to officially bury the hatchet, i will reluctantly but graciously give up some wall space at my place.

    in all seriousness, that looks amazing!

    duty, very nicely done. May I ask how you had it so nicely framed With Archival Glass and prep for only $90? I need to do the same and I am unsure how to proceed.

    Thanks,

    Hey,

    Believe it or not, I just saved the 70% Off coupons rom Michaels. Manny here at the Store near me has been instrumental in at least 4 different Custom Frames for me!

    Thanks

    YeeHaw!

    I'm a huge fan of horror movies...could you show us some of your favorite posters?

    Looks great ! !

    If you are out of room on your walls like you said you can always post those beauties on the ceiling above your bed so when you go to sleep at night you will have pleasant dreams

    With Archival Glass and prep it was only $90

    Hiya Neil - looks great! Agree on the color backing also.

    If I have it correct? The entire framing was 90 bucks?

    If so, that's a steal! My frame shop has an "ongoing" simple archival frame job for 60 bucks - but ya get nothing but frame and glass.

    I really like your posters also.

    I've got 50 to 75 lobby cards but no plans to do anything with them.

    Thanx for sharing buddy.

    No problem Mike. I actually have some 70's and 80's black light/velvet posters that I had planned on putting in cheap poster frames but now after seeing how cheaply he got that frame and matt for I am now considering it. I just have to get my hands on that super coupon!! :#

    I get one of those Coupons from Michaels about every 11 minutes in my E-Mail in box, cause I've done business with them in the Past!

    Neil, very nice. The pink has grown on me, at first I was a little wishy washy but now I like it. Way to think outside the box!
