am guessing someone else round these parts has a boxing poster or two hanging up somewhere, I've just got hold of a nice Lewis/Holyfield 1 poster and wanted to get it framed. But, its 60cmx90 and I can't find a f'ing frame that size anywhere online, just a normal plain wooden frame I mean not one from an oil painting.
Anyone else had this problem or knows a place that does frames like that, it seems a fairly standard size for a poster?
cheers.

Rather than spend ages looking for a frame that doesn't quite fit I'd just bite the bullet and have a look for picture framers in the Yellow Pages. They'll be able to do it, and they'll do a nice job. Depending on what frame you get and whether or not you get non-reflective glass with the frame I guess you're looking at £20-40 but you'll get a good job and a nice frame that compliments the poster.
That's what I do anyway!

Look in your Yellopages or around your local town centre for art Galleries/shops they usually offer a framing service and you can choose your own style of frame and backing board/mount colour etc etc.
I've spent a small fortune over the years getting various bits of art and Boxing memoribilia framed by specialists, buts its worth it because they look great hung around my house.
Treat yourself mate get a professional to frame it for you, it's worth it in the long run.
