A week late getting back to this for a follow-up but in the images below, you can see what happens when a collector ages and sells off his posters - but can't quite reclaim the walls, recycling old frames instead of buying new ones - which once contained expensive vintage beauties - but which now house cheaper / newer posters, trying to fool lay people that all sizes are uniform. Yeah it looks tacky and the newer pics are a little out of focus, but you get the idea. (There are even a couple of repros I partially cropped out that are in larger size WC frames.) - d.

David I have done that and it works well. I found this place awhile back and they have really nice wood frames cut to size and the prices are amazing. https://www.arttoframe.com/13x30-Satin-Black-picture-frame/FRBW26079?page_type=E -Peter On Thu, Apr 27, 2023 at 10:11 PM David Kusumoto <davidmkusum...@hotmail.com<mailto:davidmkusum...@hotmail.com>> wrote: Has anyone else done similar? Australian daybills are among my favs - esp. titles for which no USA inserts were made, usually post-1983. I've recycled a number of insert frames made by Sue Heim - and depending upon the background, I'll use black or different color paper to "cover" the white backer board underneath and let the poster float inside. (Personal preference - I've never used a matte to "frame" posters a second time inside the frame - because paper expands/contracts.) For "Goodfellas" - I like the daybill format more than the DS one-sheet I used to own, e.g., its composition, slightly deeper colors plus it's more affordable - although the last one sold by Bruce fetched about $200. (This one is going out the door soon as I'm upgrading condition.) -d.
