chromium Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I got the 24 x 36 inch size http://fedex.com/us/office/marketing/signsbanners/posters/packages.html?lid=Learnmore_posters_packages I did a high res scan (about 100MB) through the slab. Took it into Kinkos on a USB drive. They do a proof first to show a you what a small section will look like. Then if you like it they make the poster. I had them trim any white edges off, they did a good job of that. Then its a gloss solid board that looks amazing. I think its a tad boring to get the classic covers (do we really need a spidey 1 print? no) , so I did ones I really like that look different from the standard posters. post them here if you get some made, good luck Joe Like the posters... Made one myself a few years ago... I put the actual comic next to it for size-reference. Since then I made another poster, this time of the cover of Silver Surfer #1 (using photo paper, so the quality is better) but I still need to get it up on the wall.

Matches Malone-migration Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Nice rooms! How do you guys get your slabbed books to sit on shelves and furniture without sliding off? Are there supports that are sold somewhere? Thanks for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Nice rooms! How do you guys get your slabbed books to sit on shelves and furniture without sliding off? Are there supports that are sold somewhere? Thanks for the advice. In my case, the edge of my shelves have a strip made in lucite so that the books can't slide off and are supported while still allowing full vision of the comics. At first, I had considered a groove but the lucite works much better I've found (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
