About Framing Posters

Whether it’s vintage advertising posters, movie posters, concert posters, travel posters, or inspirational quotes, posters add a touch of personality and a curated aesthetic that contributes to the overall character and atmosphere of a room. They can reflect personal interests or hobbies allowing their owners to showcase their unique tastes and passions. They can also lend atmosphere to a themed room such as vintage movie posters in a home theater, vintage liquor ads in a bar or inspirational quotes in an office, spa or gym. Posters can also evoke nostalgia or transport viewers into different places and cultures. Beyond the image or message on the poster itself, the right frame can enhance a poster’s effect and protect it from damage.

Framing Vintage or Collectible Posters

Vintage posters are often more delicate than other kinds of posters. Posters that are older are generally more brittle and fragile, which can result in an increase of tears, creases, and crumbling. Collectible posters, such as movie posters or concert posters, which might increase in value over time, require special consideration as well. To frame a vintage or collectible poster, our framing business recommends that you follow these tips:

Framing Other Types of  Posters

Framing other types of posters is much easier if you are only concerned about aesthetics, not preserving value. While you still may want to use acid-free materials, a spacer or mat to prevent the poster from sticking to the glazing, and UV-protective glazing to prevent fading if your poster will be hanging in direct sunlight, you can feel confident choosing dry mounting versus hinge mounting. This will free you up to focus on selecting the perfect moulding to enhance your poster to greatest effect.
