Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2005 22:24:17 -0700 I dont think you can find that size, and if you want to hang oversized linenbacked posters the best way may be get a long linen overlap on the borders that could be wrapped around a stretcher like an artist would for a canvas painting. the tension will also help prevent that wavy, sagging that happens when you just pin them up (depending on the atmosphere the piece gets more or less wavy) Rich== At 08:39 PM 8/25/05, JR wrote: Tom, Not sure anyone but the CIA can get a single sheet of Plexiglas that is 63 x 94. Good luck on that. I think you may have to settle for having an expert carefully glue two large pieces of plexi together -- there would still be a thin seam and it would be somewhat delicate, but that probably could be done with some of the super-glues they have these days. And yeah, buckling would definitely be a problem. Back-bracing the frame would help some, but I can't think of anything you could do to keep the plexi (and the poster/linen behind it) from sagging forward in the middle. Plexi that you can see through clearly just isn't that thick or rigid. Here's a thought: A two-layer glazing system. First you have the foam board that is glued or screwed to the back support of the frame. You place the poster on top of the foamboard. Then you place a very thin layer of non-stick, UV Plexiglas on top of the poster. Finally, you slap a sheet of glass on top of the plexi. The glass gives you the rigidity to keep the rest from buckling or sagging. It would be an incredibly heavy mother, and need to be secured to the wall very well so that there was never a chance of it falling. As for the bugaboo of the glass breaking and tearing the poster -- the sheet of plexi between the poster and the glass should prevent that. Man, that would be one expensive frame... probably cost more that the value of the poster. -- JR - Original Message - From: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Tom A.

Finally after four years of going to numerous frame shops here in lower Michigan I have finally found a framer. This framer will actually frame my eight French 47 x 63 one panels. Total will be about five thousand. This has been a major nightmare for me for four solid years. I could find no one that wanted or was willing to tackle this project. Anyway for my friend Phil Edward's I got my one panel (Soubie) from The Time Machine 1960 back yesterday. It's finally framed and done (after four years). I bought it from you in 2000 or 2001. It's spectacular Phil. Thank you for selling it to me. I am ecstatic about it!!! I also picked up my one panel from Viva Las Vegas from 1964 also (Soubie) and it look's great but these posters do buckle a bit. I noticed this at the frame shop. Since they are all linenbacked I think one must have to live with this. I do NOT want dry mounting. Even reversible dry mounting if there is such a thing. The posters are in Neilsen Frames and have spring clips, plexiglass, archival mats and archival acid free foam core. I do notice the poster change with room temperature. I think this pretty much goes along with larger posters. Any thoughts from professional framers, collector's with the same problem? I have six more one panels on linen to go. Then in the next few years I will have my linenbacked two panel (63 x 94) from Thunderball framed. They are willing to tackle it. Plex might be a problem but it will be done if it's the last thing I do. This poster is the crown jewel of my 007 collection and Thunderball collection. Hello to my friend Thomas Nixdorf if you are reading this. I know they really liked your copy at the museum in Germany during the 007 display you had there. Really like the 1965 Australian daybill from you!!! Six more one panels and the two panel to go. I have been eyeing the 63 x 94 two panel by Landi for Circus World (1964). Will have that one panel grande done by Masci. Buckling is a problem but it comes and goes. I would guess the two panels would really sag. Also would need a wooden frame for support in the back. Thought's anyone on buckling of other larger one panels, three sheets, etc on linen. Thanks! Tom P.S. I am beginning to wonder if this is normal? What do you think? The frame shop was concerned we would not pay. I would never leave my posters anywhere. They are like my children!!! :) I guess they have not met up with my type before. Either very unique or very odd. The jury is still out!!! :) Visit the MoPo

[MOPO] MOPO: Large Frames
Hi All, I have several oversized LB posters hanging in Nielson Frames with 1/8 inch UV acrylic. I use Stainless wire and very small turnbuckles on the back corners of the frame that take the load off the corner clamping system used with Nielson frames. This has worked very well for many years.. The acrylic will sag in the center because of the weight but this actually helps keep the poster against the rear AF backboard and helps eliminate the poster from sagging. I have never had a problem with quality UV acrylic sticking to the artwork when I wanted to change out posters in the frames. Just my 2 cents...

Re: [MOPO] linen buckling
Hello Everyone, Paper and fabric are susceptible to humidity changes. Posters expand and contract in the frame and, for the most part, that is what causes buckling. People ask me all the time if they linenback a poster will that stop buckling from occuring. No, it does not as is evidenced by many a collector that has linenbacked posters framed. When I do the framing of a linenbacked poster, I do reinforce the system to alleviate part of that problem. Once of the other ways to help it is to hang your frames with two nails or hooks about 3 inches in from each side of the frame. A good frame has been overbuilt by at least 1/8" to allow for expansion of the poster. When you hang with one hook, it has more of a tendency to pull the side legs in a bit and take up that allowance. Then the side of your poster is up against the wall of the frame and when it expands it has nowhere to go but to buckle in the middle. Larger posters that are linenbacked, if not tacked in properly in the frame, can also sag a bit due to gravity and that also causes buckling. Unfortunately, part of it is just the nature of the beast. Paper is very rarely flat just in it's own nature. When you mount it on fabric with water involved, you sometimes get a bit of a quilting effect and I have many linenbacked posters shipped to me for framing and they rarely lay perfectly flat. Often it takes a while in the new environment of the frame for them to flatten out at all. So, hope the info helps. Take care all.

French's but also with the 3 sheets and also on the half sheets (I thinklinened1/2 sheets and insertsis ano-no). Over the years I have tried to stay away from linenbacking. I thought it was great in the beginning, but my tastes have changed, i'd rather a poster in its original state if possible. best drV Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.

Re: [MOPO] EBAY SCAM CONTINUES Fwd: eBay International Second Chance Offer Invoice for Item:7537670429
The Second Chance Offer scam isn't new. I've been getting these for at least a year now. Best advice: Never click on any link in one of these emails. To find out if the offer actually may be legit, go directly to the ebay auction in question, and ask the seller about it through the ebay message system. Keep in mind though that, even if a second chance offer is 'legit', it may still be a scam, in which the high bidder was a shill for the seller, thereby unmasking your maximum bid and giving the seller a 'second chance' to take you to the cleaners with a second chance offer. By the way, nice to see you over at NSFGE, a forum where collectors are free to say what on their minds, without fear of aggressive censorship by overzealous forum administrators.

[MOPO] RECOMMENDED: GRIZZLY MAN
And DON'T take your children. Last night I saw GRIZZLY MAN, the Werner Herzog film about Timothy Treadwell, the self-styled naturist and bear confidante. I'm not going to tell you anything about the film. Go to the reviews if you want that. This is simply an amazing film. It's an experience really, and it sticks with you. Devotees of Herzog's films will know that this film takes it place with Herzog's great jungle classics. But even if you don't know anything about him, you will find, I think, that this film will surprise you. It's a devastating film, so be warned: this is the stuff that's scary -- the internal stuff.

[MOPO] latest eBay scams are not new
Y'all, Both of the recently-reported scams on Ebay -- the bogus "Congratulations, you've won, and here's how to complete the transaction..." message and the bogus "second chance offer" message have been going on for years. I have received several during that time. They are just getting more sophisticated and official looking is all. About 18 months ago I was bidding on a genuine one-of-a-kind piece of original artwork in a hotly-contested auction. Near the end of the bidding I received a very sincere-sounding offer from someone who told me they had one they could sell me for less than the current bid -- but I was bidding on something of which there was only one in existence! This is only valid reason I see for the big auctioneers like Bruce and Heritage taking their auctions "Private" -- so no one can see the other bidders and send them these kind ofscam messages. Along with email virus attachments and all the clever variations on "official-looking" emails phishing for your user name and password, the bottom line everyone must start adopting towards messages that askyou to "do something" is this: Always proceed very cautiously with any message you receive asking you to do something. Even if it turns out to be genuine, it's better to take it slow and double check before clicking on any links or sending any money. Trust no one -- not even the people or sites you know you cantrust -- because the message might not really be from them. -- JR Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
Re: [MOPO] linen buckling
Michael, I pretty much agree. I will only linenback a poster if it has become so fragile that it is real danger of falling apart if not stabilized. If it has defects that can be corrected by a talented restoration artist without backing, I might havesome of that doneif what's required is not too extensive. But tears and missing pieces of papertend to be minimized when you put a poster in a frame with a white backing anyway. If there's really a huge amount of missing paper, so much that it really doesn't display well without paper-replacement, then I would tend to pass on buyingthe posterin the first place (unless it was totally rare and I just *had* to have it. Not many posters fall into that category for me). Realistically, the reason most dealers push linenbacking (and restoration, whether fully-disclosed or not) as being an enhancement is simple: Profits. If you're a dealer and can buy a highly desirable title inpretty bad shape for super-cheap and then pay a high-end professional backers and restorers a good chunk of money to restore it to "like mint" for you, you can then sell it for a premium and make some very nice profits. This is considered a perfectly moral, ethically-sound and acceptable way of doing business in the world of most collectibles. I don't agree, but that's the way of the world.

Re: [MOPO] linen buckling
Another reason that I linen back as a dealer is that the posters can be handled more by the customers without damage Current Gallery Exhibit Money back if not satisfied MasterCard Visa Discover American Express Jim Episale Unshredded Nostalgia323 south main stRoute 9Barnegat nj 08005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]www.unshreddednostalgia.com tel: 800 872 9990 Add me to your address book...

I will only linenback a poster if it has become so fragile that it is real danger of falling apart if not stabilized. If it has defects that can be corrected by a talented restoration artist without backing, I might havesome of that doneif what's required is not too extensive. But tears and missing pieces of papertend to be minimized when you put a poster in a frame with a white backing anyway. If there's really a huge amount of missing paper, so much that it really doesn't display well without paper-replacement, then I would tend to pass on buyingthe posterin the first place (unless it was totally rare and I just *had* to have it. Not many posters fall into that category for me). Realistically, the reason most dealers push linenbacking (and restoration, whether fully-disclosed or not) as being an enhancement is simple: Profits. If you're a dealer and can buy a highly desirable title inpretty bad shape for super-cheap and then pay a high-end professional backers and restorers a good chunk of money to restore it to "like mint" for you, you can then sell it for a premium and make some very nice profits. This is considered a perfectly moral, ethically-sound and acceptable way of doing business in the world of most collectibles. I don't agree, but that's the way of the world.

I never listen to reviewers. Their taste in films might not be the same as mine. They are just human with just human opinions.

Re: [MOPO] Just screened The Brothers Grimm
Ok - This may be a bad time to send this, but here goes...(Kathy - Shut your eyes and count to 10.Now) Not a cult film by any means. Be Cool I have just watched Be Cool with the wife I really enjoyed it but it's far from a movie to rant and rave about. Some really funny bits in it - The Rock deffo makes the film have that all funny edge. There is a nice shot of a Scarface Quad in it which I thought was cool. There was also a scene with Travolta and Uma doing a very unique dance routine, I wonder where I've seen that before lol Harvey Keitel is as good as ever playing a great music pimp type character Alltogether an above average entertaining film with some comedy spice mixed in.

Re: [MOPO] Just screened The Brothers Grimm
Andy, Sounds like a movie for me to see I love movies. I guess that's why my husband and I get along together so good (he's a manager at a multi-plex theatre). LOL I enjoy almost any movie EXCEPT chick flicks and slasher movies.
