Hi Guys
Has anybody got any experience of getting Original SW One Sheets / Quads Framed professionally?
I went to our local professional framing shop today to discuss options regarding getting some Original Vintage SW One Sheet Movie Posters framed. The quote was around £50 - £70 depending on materials used etc.
Here are some things they do -
Dry Roll and Backing this I believe constitutes restoration and sounded very similar to line backing restoration apparently its flattens the poster out completely and makes it look mint however it can have an adverse effect on value as these types of processes are non reversible.
They do 2 main types of Glass standard (light reflects off it) and also diffused glass which provides a matt style finish and light doesn’t reflect off it.
Another point to consider was Original One Sheets have white borders so its sounds like a small mount is going to be necessary apparently the guy I was speaking can do mounts in different colours.
Finally the frame I know I’m going to go with eventually its quite thin (maybe an inch) and is Graphite in colour.
If anyone’s had any experience of framing original one sheets professionally and can post experiences on this thread or just share any knowledge that you may know that could help me out please feel free
Cheers Jay
