  I got the Obama poster a week or so ago, waiting on a frame.
  Got the BAPE Bearbrick for my birthday.

    I didn't tag it up ffs, I just have clips on it now but the frame should be done soon.– cursiveshotgun2/4

  If custom framing counts as a design purchase, count me in.

  I took my iso50 Obama print and this amazing map of central Paris from the 50s in to get framed last week, and all the supplies just arrived at the store.

  Can't wait to get a photo of the Paris map to show you. I bought it for $25 in an antique store in Austin, TX several years ago. It's a reproduction print, but from 1958. All hand drawn, buildings represented in 3d, it's just stunning. It's going to be more than 55" wide once framed, matted, etc. I dropped some decent money on it - $245 for acid free mounting, UV glass, nice big frame.

  The Obama print is getting framed as well. I think that was around $150.

  • yeah, mine is gonna be around $150 for the Obama print as well.– cursiveshotgun1/3

    for a frame? wtf– digdre2/3

    pretty normal price for custom framing..– neverblink3/3

  Hey everyone, I finally went and picked up the stuff I had framed today! I am thrilled beyond thrilled with the Paris map. Framed it is about 52 inches wide and almost as wide as my couch:

  • where?– digdre1/11

    Did I get em? One from here: http://www.mondotees… and one from ebay.– ian2/11

    The big trouble in little china one was from ebay, unfortunately the illustrators site was sold out.– ian3/11

    They're too expensive at eBay. I'm thinking I should buy that Alamo one. But I also like the Buffy 10th anniv. poster– Jaline4/11

    they have at Mondo Tees.– Jaline5/11

    that's a pretty sweet sticker.– i_monk6/11

    Yes, I was fond of the sticker. Haven't seen the buffy one J, but not a fan of the show... Im gonna be slated for that...– ian7/11

    Love it ian, fucknin' love it... what was your address again ;)– Dancer8/11

    I have the Alamo one and it's sweet, Ian I'm gettin mine framed - €77 in Dun Laoghaire– rough9/11

    €77? thats not bad, got em done on capel st, €65 each. They are up on the walls now!!!– ian10/11

  Bumpitty bump!
  Got my posters framed and really happy with em, however when I moved into my apartment there were three prints up on the wall. I've replaced two with my new ones but the last one looks extra crappy...

  Where are people buying posters and art online. apart from blanka are there any other good sites?

  • pics...– set1/2

    four posts up! ^^– ian2/2
