How to Frame Vintage Posters?

Vintage poster framing has grown popular over the last few years. As framing a vintage poster is quite tricky, follow the tips below to do it perfectly depending on different things.

• Mat Boards

Mat boards look like only a border but are thin pieces of card/paper-based material surrounding your artwork. They are much more and play a dominant role in bedecking your vintage poster. Mat board framing prevents the glass from directly touching your vintage poster.

Mat board's thickness maintains the distance between the poster and glass. It prevents any consideration in the frame. If you don't like mat boards available in the marketplace, you can customize them depending on the poster's appearance.

• Acid-Neutral and Acid-Free Materials

You can always choose and change the frame color suited to your vintage poster and interior décor. Acid-neutral and acid-free materials can be good to frame vintage posters as they prevent interior damage. You can also add a linen backing mount to your vintage poster, mainly the large ones, to handle them easily.

• Ready-Made Frames

Vintage posters are available in standard sizes. Still, you can find ready-frames for them in a wide variety of styles and sizes. Your vintage poster will fit into most of the ready-made photo frames. You can also use the ready-made frames with/without mats to display your favorite vintage posters on the walls.

• Custom Frames

If you can't find a perfect-sized ready-made frame for your vintage poster, customize one as per your requirements and preferences. Custom framing can beautify all elements inside the frame. Design a frame depending on your poster's exact dimensions or consider the addition of mat boards. You can add the desired number of mat openings and adjust the openings' size.
