    Sneak it or to Curves house, slip in in the stack and maybe it will get framed with the other three. :D

    Are they the same size as the MINI vs. Porsche posters? I thought they might be.

    I got a cheap frame from Walmart that fit the MvsP posters nicely, and was hoping to do the same for these.

    Good read. Guy has had a hellofa career. I have had the pleasure of meeting him on several occasions and have a bunch of signed stuff, including the book, the Miami print you see a corner of (also signed by Al Holbert, one of my all time favorite drivers), a "real" Porsche factory poster, and a 1971 Le Mans start poster signed by him and Vic Elford. I also have a great shot Derek B. took with me at Renn Sport a few years back. Now I just need a massive room with lots of walls to get it all hung up!

    Measure it, go to Bed Bath & Beyond, buy a frame, put picture in the frame and hang it up.

    JoAnn Fabrics and/or Hobby Lobby have inexpensive frames that look nice. If it isn't a standard size you can get a custom frame at both places too for a lot cheaper than in the short north!! Just remembering the size it will probably fit in a 16x20 frame, you could get a float frame (one with glass on both sides) and then you wouldn't have to worry about framing the poster within the picture frame. At least you don't have 3 to frame like we do! Hope this helps! :D

    I found that "thump tacks" hold it on the wall very nicely. :biggrin5:

    A few problems with that.

    1. It puts holes in the poster.

    2. The walls in this place are plaster over lathe, no holes allowed cause big chunks fall out.

    But it is hanging in a "free range" garage. That is the look I was going for. Even hung my license plate frame on top of a map of Graham County:D
