« on: March 03, 2014, 04:31:00 PM »
Just curious if anybody has used any of the companies that are out here? If not, any recommendations on who to use?

Are you opposed to shipping elsewhere?

If not, then restorers like Poster Mountain, Mario Cueva and Dario Casadei all come to mind.  ;)

AJ,

Mario is about an hour and 40 min southeast of LA itself. You should give him a call. I'm thinking he would let you stop by, since you are considering having some backing work done (and could end up being a client).

And he's a nice and friendly guy to deal with, too.  thumbup

Leslie,

I saw you Topix reply to my post on Chis. Happy you found this place on your own. Looks like he did a worse job on your poster than mine. Luckily I also had a spare, which I sent to Dario to mount. I buy mostly Inserts and Daybills, actually need to stop spending money on my Arcade Hobby and get my 3 Back to the Future Daybills sent out for mounting.

Aj,

Did this meeting/get together with Mario ever come together when you were out here?

Unfortunately no, I had way too much going on when I was there.  But hopefully I can make it out there on my next trip, plus I have a few better posters now that I rather send in then I did before.  Cant wait.

Mario is excellent.  And also very quick.  You never get a " Uhm. .maybe next week you will have your poster back". He does an incredible job.
