Have you tried mirror frames?

Got this back from the frame store today. I was floored by the job he did on it. Really makes the piece look good. This is also the first piece I've had framed. Sorry for the crappy pictures, I suck at taking pictures.

Although I am slightly miffed. I found a tiny "scratch" on the right side of the frame. I know I must have done it. Nobody else will probably see it, but I can. No way to touch it up I guess. I'm just mad that I JUST got it, and there's a small imperfection already. Ah well.

Now... just to find a place to hang it!

Framed my stouts in Michels frames ($35 a piece on sale). Hanged temporarily, have to space them out and lower Recall and Lebowski.
I've taken this pic with my phone so bad quality, sorry.

I agree. When I first saw it on the site, I ordered it simply to sell it on the Bay. Then I got it in person and realized I really enjoyed the print. After I got it back from the framer yesterday I like it that much more. I haven't hung it up yet, but a few people I have had come over agree that it is much nicer and looks like a work of art now that it is framed. I can't wait to get my Ghost Ship back from the framer in about a week. After that, I need to take it easy on the frames/prints for a while. Well...framing anyway. The Ben Linus cost me 170, and Ghost Ship is going to be 250. The guy does real quality work, and is pretty much the cheapest in the area for me.

Dalek signs everything right on the edge making it impossible to mat without taking out the signature and the number so ... more floating. Edition of 100.

The Sam Flores is a quick throw up on the side of a tiger baby toy box. I bought it on Ebay and my girlfriend had it framed for me when I was out of town last year.
$250 for the pair shipped and insured. Both are mint. Shipping should be around 7 or 8 bucks.

FYI: this was the collection that didn't make my walls, still beats your shitty little collections...and if it doesn't, I still couldn't care less.
