Poster Purchasing/Framing Tips

These tips are spread throughout the site, but I thought I'd collect them in one place just in case anybody finds them useful:
If you're past the thumbtack stage of your life, try mounting a poster on wood for a simple yet professional look.

Fine art posters are a huge, huge bargain, so don't worry about spending more for the frame than the poster.

When framing posters, AllPosters gives you the option of matting to the actual image, eliminating any border.

A mat helps protect original artworks from damage. With posters, a mat is optional.

When framing posters, the mat color can help integrate an artwork into the decor of the room. But a mat must first and foremost complement the art.

When framing posters, the mat should never overwhelm the artwork. Make sure the mat has less color intensity than the poster.

When framing darker or subtly-colored posters, it's a good idea to use non-glare glass.

Besides fine art, Allposters also has a great selection of movie posters, music posters, motivational posters and celebrity photos.

You can save significantly on shipping costs by buying multiple posters in a single order.
