how do you match the coors? That must be difficult, have you ever choosen the wrong hue of paint and put it on a poster?

[posterfix]

No- I mix the color until it is right. Even if it is slightly wrong ity can be adjusted. it's all in the MIXING! lol

you and the cure rock........

i just aquired a "jaws" 1975 1 sheet .... i dont know but i believe it's a perfect candidate for linnen backing......typicalty what dose this cost? it';s in pretyy good shape.

your tutoriels arre def. the bomb and thanks for sharing.

The linen backing of a Jaws 1-sheet would be $150 which would include acid neutralizing and linen backing as well as cleaning. Color inpainting would be extra if its needed. Paper fills, etc.

Only a few of my posters are glossy- most are pre-ww2. Many are lithos. I hope your customers appreciate your experience!

As a collector and a client of posterfix, I can attest to the fact that Chris and his staff offer not just the best poster restoration in the U.S. but in the whole world. Chris also happens to be a fine artist of amazing skill. I believe some of his original works are on youtube as well.
