.

Robert also said that his plexi will be UV free in the near future.  Not a big deal for the room I am using mine in, but will simply order one piece of that plexi when he gets it.

Hope all that helps!

Any idea when he's going to have that UV plexi? I'm definitely on board to order once that's available.

Another phat (41"(H) x 61"(V)) frame from Spotlight arrived. This is a second frame for my Italian one panels and it also fits 40x60 US posters.

You know I heard a rumor that some people buy expensive large posters and never display them! Outrageous!

Hey Mel .. do you use any other kind of backing besides the additional overlay that Robert ships with the frames? I had issues with my posters falling out the back as I was picking the frames up off the floor. So I put black foam core in in place of the rear sheet of plastic.

Yeah but one solution is to use double-sided tape to hold down the back overlay.

I never thought about that, I was using some other stuff trying to save a little money but it didnt work as well as I wanted. I am really happy with the black foam core though. Its like $12/sheet (40"x60") at Michaels (craft store) and its acid free and since its black if the poster is smaller you dont notice it as much.

Just received my first snap frame, super happy with it.  It's a birthday present for someone whose birthday is a few months away (one of their top 5 movies), and it'll be their first movie poster. 



my cat also greatly appreciates the packaging

My first spotlight frame. There is some yellowing on the top edge of the poster, but I really don't care too much about it. The frame itself looks just perfect!. Very well packed, easy-to-follow instruction, and great great customer service. Thanks a lot Robert!

Do they make plexi big enough to cover it, or will it be displayed in the buff? 

And yes, what is it? :)

The one rolled up next to it of course  ;)

Unfortunately they don't have a single sheet big enough to cover it, so Robert cut me two overlays which will meet at the seam where the poster pieces also overlap. But this means I need at least one more person to help hold everything in place while it's snapped in. I did have it naked in the frame for a few minutes to see how it looks, but then took it out. Should be finished over the weekend and I'll post a photo*.


*hint - it is an AFI top 25 film (but not very expensive so don't get excited - the wife and I love it though).
