    I need some help. I would like to frame this picture but it's in bad shape. I'm not sure if I should have it photocopied and then frame the copy or have an archival framer put an acid free mat around it to cover the rough edges and frame it. As you see it here, it is on a backing.
    I would like to hear from some of you. Ideas?

      I am assuming you want to use the original vs a copy? Nothing like the original! Now, doing it safely? Please get an expert.

      PS If it is stuck to the glass, Leave it alone. Live with a copy or have it done right.

      So Phil, Walgreens has invaded Canada?! The country is doomed! Next thing will be a Home-Depot & then Harbour Freight. Don't you have a gov't. & army to stem the invasion?

      Phil, just a friendly reminder of a sign we all saw in our youth at the local zoo…
      "please don't feed the animals"! :)))))

      Who am I kidding? We have 2 McDonalds, Burger King & 2 Ace stores! And we are almost the last outpost in the Caribe Frontier.
