I know, and I am hoping in a few months you still do. My problem is with the terrible shipping cost, and that is the only reason I passed on it before. Since it cannot be rolled for shipping, its brutal. If it was not for that, I would be all over it. And after I have recovered from buying some major pieces for my collection and the birth of my daughter, I plan to talk to you about one of those you have!

Here is what is up on my walls: Two of the frames were ordered in the wrong size. So I reordered the sizes I needed and kept the frames that were the wrong size and made the best of it. I never intended to display the posters I did in those frames. As for the others, everything but the B0 will be switched out when I feel the need for a change and want to display something else new. I have a b1 and a b2 that I still need to photograph and upload that is not pictured. Heres a link to view them - http://www.moviepostermadness.com/Movie_Poster_Madness/Framed_Posters.htmlCj |

That's it... My wife won, I lost. She took over the living room, I only have one poster frame left in the whole house. Since it's drilled to the wall, this one's not going anywhere. I just put my War of the Worlds poster in it. Sorry for the poor photo, Iphones are not good in low light.  T |

Looks great, but would look even better with a Larry Bird poster in there...  |

Hey, I'm redoing my office (will show pix later.) But the intent is to have my Lakers jersey signed to me by Magic at the far end of the room, so that it's the first thing you see. I'm painting the room burgundy, so yellow stands out, with a ceiling light directly on it. Fuck posters. My jersey is all I want.

Good, I'll swing by with a truck and help you clean out all that trash in your garage.  |

I got the ABSURD sales sheet matted and framed today. I usually don't go to frame shops for framing, but my friend works there and did the whole thing for $30.  |

I decided to make a change in one of my frames. From a very unappealing poster to a much better looking poster I think. Plus M. Night just pisses me off anymore.

Night is a hack, just one step above McG and Ratner. People with no talent but balls the size of a Zeppelin.
Moon, on the other hand, is a remarkable little movie. Good choice, little man.

Mel, I am curious - how do you get your folded (or even rolled for that matter) posters appear to lay very flat within the frames?
Are the posters basically right upon against the plexiglass (i.e. squished tightly between backing and front)?
I have a smallish linenbacked poster that I can't even get to lay nicely flat with a matting and a secure backing!

The flip frames put very heavy pressure on the plexiglass poster and they'll flatten anything. Plus I store all my posters flat, so that helps. The main problem I'm having with framing is that the frames are exactly 27x40 (or 27x41). Many posters are slightly longer than those dimensions. Sticking an oversize poster in an undersize frame is guaranteed to create permanent compression waves. |

Robert at Spotlight Displays will make a custom snap frame for you. Just give him your dimensions and it takes a day or two longer per order. He's a good guy to work with. |

Thanks! Yep. About one year ago but I have been cramming. Im sure you know that if you love movies and you start with this stuff that you are in big trouble I would post a wanted list but it would be in the six digits |

I hear you Z. I've only been doing this for a few years and I'm already hooked. My recent break was good though... I recommend everyone take them if they are feeling a bit obsessed with poster collecting. I'm not done collecting by any means, but it has helped with prioritizing my efforts (and funds).

Love the international paper, Zorba. Especially the German DWW. First year in this hobby is just foreplay. Break out the checkbook, you are in for a hard f##king now.  Your place looks great, man. |
