Fair point.
I also considered the UGWNL poster, the big red screen-printed one.

Isn't that thing huge? I have it in a huge ass tube in my closet. I don't think I've ever opened it to be honest..

It is huge and aesthetically rather boring. It's like 3 foot by 4 foot or something crazy. (no, I'm not gonna do the metric conversion)

We talk in feet and inches here too when talking casually. (ie. I have no idea how tall I am in cm but I know in feet/inches).

Second question I guess is how do I frame the von munz record? I can't just frame it like the other records because of the dead space. Usually I have records just framed like this:

Is that just a plain white mat behind the record? are the records against the glass?

It's not nearly thaaaat big, it's about 26 x 38'', so slightly larger than 2 ft x 3 ft, which doesn't fit in your typical portfolio. Nice story behind it though for a Canadian! It looks a lot nicer in person than the jpg of course.

I'm fond of MacGyvering wall clocks for hanging records. A little paint, few nuts & bolts. Home Goods, Target, even some hardware stores will have clocks behind glass/plexi.
