FRAMING
YOUR LARGE
MOVIE POSTERS
Many collectors shy away from large size movie posters
because they are more difficult to preserve and display. But have no
fear -- Sue Heim is here!
Frame expert, Sue Heim of Hollywood
Poster Frames, has written a great article for LAMP entitled "TIPS
FOR FRAMING: OVERSIZE POSTERS."
In addition, we have re-worked the entire framing article,
Framing
Movie Poster Collectibles.
Collectors should read these articles before taking their
valuable collectible posters to be framed.

LAMP'S
Poster Restoration Certificate
Have you ever bought a "restored" movie poster?
Exactly what was done to it? Was paper replaced? Was it repainted? What
chemicals were used to remove stains, marks, etc.? How was it linenbacked?
For
years, we have advocated the need for some type of record reflecting
renovations done to a particular poster. This record could then be transferred
with the exchange of ownership of a poster.
Having
a record of a poster's restoration can have many benefits. For example,
certain chemicals do not mix and can have an adverse affect on a poster.
This information is essential for subsequent repairs to a restored poster.
The type and amount of restoration can affect the value of a poster.
Poster buyers and sellers can use this information to more adequately
evaluate the poster. This information is also helpful for financial
records such as insurance.
We
have designed a three page certificate that we are making available
to collectors to use to record their poster restorations. Simply print
out the form and send it to the poster restorer with the poster.
