I'll try to look it up. I know nothing about framing. We picked it out with the framers and it's perfect. I posted this in the Whalen thread: I tweeted a pic of the Monsters Inc to Whalen and he responded with “that frame was MADE for that poster.”

Roma Moulding #34053297. 2" Numungo Veneer Hand Polished Lacquer.

Be careful cleaning it, DuoSonic. Lacquers demand a little more care. Use a soft microfiber cloth to avoid micro-scratches.

Thanks for the pointers. I know nothing about cleaning these things. Should I just use the microfiber and no cleaning chemicals?

Any ammonia-free window cleaner will do the trick. Always spray the cloth, never the art. Treat it nice like a lady.

I would say it's a good rule of thumb to use cleaning chemicals on ANY frames. Just dust it off with a cloth.

You're doing it wrong.

Very nice! That was one of the few I thought about going after. Glad to see it found a good home! :notworthy:

That is the only 1 I would have wanted. Super Nice!

Did you get it at the drop? I do not even remember seeing that one during the release.

Thanks y'all.

Yeah..it was part of the summer book cover series.

I was bummed this went as high as it did on ebay (1.3k) the week before, or id have had them both side by side.
Faile wont authenticate street pieces, but this would still be pretty epic to have up.

Nice book! I was bidding on the fashion chimps street piece as well. I wish I'd won one of those damn things.

Put this in my office at work, sorry for the glare.
Miles Davis has been said to see people as colours, and his colour was a strong glowing red.
So I went counter intuitive and highlit the already prominent red, giving the poster the effect of a "glow".
It doesn't really come out in the picture, but I'm very happy with the actual result.
