You could probably put the 3 pieces as close together as they can get and sandwich them between glass and frame it.

 

NO NO NO!!! Framed art should NEVER come in contact with the glass like that. There must be some air spacing. Over time, when art remains in contact with glass, tiny particulate matter and condensation eventually occurs and the art can end up actually sticking to the glass.

 

Any professional framing is going to have either a matte, whose function besides aesthetics is to separate the glass from the art, or interspacers (also known as spacers or separators), which are strips of plastic around the edges of the glass that provide an air spacing.

Leafcast but don't know if it would be worth it.

Obviously "worth it" can mean 2 different things here.

1) "Worth it" as in will he make a profit if he sells it.

2) "Worth it" as in is he willing to spend the bucks to have it leafcast, slabbed, and added to his collection.
