Well, now I'm worried. I've had my prints framed at Hobby Lobby. The look great, the people were knowledgeable, I'm happy with the results. Museum glass, acid free mattes, etc.
They have insurance to cover things left with them, but only go up to $200.00. If your painting, or print is more valuable than that, you have to take the print home. They'll call you when the framing materials arrive so you can bring it in. You can then watch them frame it, or come back in an hour or so, walk around the store, whatever.
I've only had 3 prints done without matting. I wonder if that means the prints are resting on the museum glass? Was there some kind of spacer between the print and the glass? I can't tell by looking at it. I'll have to ask them the next time I drive by.
Now I wonder, how do they hold the poster in place during and after mounting?
The people in this thread have a lot of knowledge. I learn a lot from you.
I would go to a "Mom & Pop" shop, but due to the economy, a lot of them have closed down. I've got to do some searching.
