LOW-COST FESTIVAL POSTER COLLECTION was created by Bill Hummel
You know how difficult and expensive it can be to collect all of the ACD Festival posters. There's framing costs and then you have to find a ton of wall space to display them.

Here is a very low-cost alternative solution. Order an ACD Festival Poster Book online or pick one up the next time you are in Auburn. In Texas, there is a chain of frame and hobby stores called Michaels. They have a line of value-priced frames that come in two-packs for $7.99. That's $4 a frame!

Get 11 x 14 frames. They come in either black or white borders. Take an x-acto knife and carefully cut each poster print loose. You will have to shave 1/4" off the top and bottom of each print. Save the white paper that comes with each frame as the prints are slightly narrower than the frame.

I got this idea from Beth Snow in the ACD Festival office. The result is an attractive and low-cost way to display your favorite posters!
