Good Day,
I am truly gratified to be one of the newest members of the All Poster Forum. I am the owner of a Canadian based poster restoration and framing business, Backingtothefuture. However, long before becoming a poster restoration specialist, I was a movie poster buff. My favorite genres are action/adventure/western from the 60's, 70's and 80's. You probably won't be surprised to discover that my favorite actors are Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, John Wayne, Paul Newman and Sean Connery/Roger Moore. Movies such as Bullitt, Dirty Harry, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Cowboys and all of the Bond films had a profound impact on me growing up.
Although collecting was fun, I was driven to take it to the next level and that led to poster restoration and shrink wrap framing. I have been restoring posters now since 1999 and the real attraction is the variety of challenges you face with each poster, the fantastic images you get to see, and eventually bringing what seems like a worthless piece of paper back to life. We have clients from around the world who entrust us with their treasures and this is the ultimate complement. We take care to provide the highest quality work we can at a reasonable price. The bottom line is excellent customer service.
I look forward to participating in the conversations that take place on the All Poster Forum website. If you have any questions or would like to check us out, please visit

Sincerely, Dan Miles.
