Popculturefan's Collection

[Charlie]

That Demon Mask poster

Is Black Sunday; a super cool Belgian!  Nice stuff pop.

Really nice collection there  

I also see you have the same type walls as me to deal with
Have you figured out how to hang frames on the slopes yet?

I had to get special hooks for the job.


EDIT:
here's an old picture...the hooks are just visible on each of the four corners of the frames.



I can take a close up if you need to see them better.

Please do take a close up, and show me what you got in the background, looks like another collection ey?

I would imagine a poster frame from Spotlight Displays would work on sloped walls, since the base is screwed into the wall.  I'll be attempting that myself in the stairwell.

[Threenero]

OK...like i said that's an old pic..
this is how it looks now...




here's a close up of one of the hooks in action


 
And heres how they look when you buy them



I have gone over a few of the hook heads with a black sharpie marker to disguise them a bit. It took me a few years to find a way to hang large frames at an angle like that, i use 6 hooks on the quads but only 4 on the rest. Because of the length of the hooks i'm limited to the kind of frames i can use but i'm out of wall space anyway so no more frames getting bought for a while.

As for other collections....other than posters there are a few, and i don't really want to hijack your thread.
the list includes.. toy cars, scale models, radios, phones,comics,magazines and all sorts of old machines and retro junk.

That is genius!  I have some steeply sloped walls in one of my rooms and I've been trying to figure out how to put posters up.  Thanks!

Save your self a major heart ache....been there tried that.
It's impossible to hold the poster and plastic in and at the same time close the frame up without parts of the poster hanging down and ending up creased or caught in between the  frame and the plastic and ending up looking like a crinkled mess.

Thank you for the heads up. Looks like the hook method it is!

Very nice collection!  I love that Nightmare City piece.  I look forward to seeing the room as it takes shape.

[Linkster]

That's genius! And I thought I was out of wall space. Let phase two commence!

[Popculturefan]

Soon i'll do an update, got about 30 Italian posters that are being "protected/framed" right now. Examples are The Shining, Nightbreed, Superman, King Kong, Friday the 13th and many others.

I hope within a few weeks they're on my walls.

[Linkster]

Sounds awesome. Looking forward to it.

[Popculturefan]

Thanks again Threeno, works like a charm! The room is coming up pretty nicely right now.
