It was around $280 from an Alameda framing place that came highly recommended on yelp. He talked us out of any kind of matting as it would then obscure the signature and number and I'm glad he did. Don't think it needs it at all.
I'm very pleased with it. To quote Lebowski, "It really ties the room together".

Hi Scambooga,
Cool...Thanks for the reply. It's good to know that my framer's estimate was around the same as yours. I might break with tradition though by using matting that would cover the signature and serial number. I know! GASP....hopefully it works out and it still looks good. Quite a gamble.

I did matting and just went a little lower around the bottom on the print to show the signature. I like wow that turned out.

I have an idea.
How about we let this thread go back to what The Monitors intended it to be?
A place to show off your Shag and how you framed it or displayed it. If your selling a Shag, put in in the Marketplace like everybody else.

I have this LP which SHAG did the art for.
and also played on it.
I don't have a Frame for it.
Wish Derek still did his wood ones.
I have it sitting above my stereo.

That is what I do, too. I (almost) always do matting,
but I frame and mat it so there is some of the
white border showing around all the sides,
and make sure not to cover the signature and numeration.
This is pretty standard for framing limited edition prints with
the notations on the edges, out of the printed image area.
It also helps keep the print from touching the glass/Plexiglas,
which is an important part of conservation framing (and protecting
the value of) any collectible artwork, along with using archival grade
mats, backing boards, and mounting system (acid free, reversible tape).
The first I had ever seen of signatures and numbering being covered
over was in the lowbrow movement, but it kinda' freaks me out,
particularly when forgeries can be an issue, which is commented on
in the SHAG, LTD book.
The best hints of a fake, aside from the printing quality
are often the pencil signature and notation not being quite right.
I won't buy a limited print, framed, if I cannot see the signature.

I don't have pictures of all my shag stuff, but here are some stuff I got for my 22nd birthday this year in May. Two are Disney shag prints that I kept in the framing i got them in for fear of messing them up trying to switch them. the second picture is a shadow box my aunt made (she's in the picture as well) for me with stuff from the Venus lounge in Vegas. It contains a matchbook, cocktail napkin, a postcard and swizzle stick. this too I kept in the original framing because i like how it looks.
I'll add more pics soon once I start taking pictures of them

Hi all,
I just found this thread and wanted to share some of our stuff as well. This is the Shag print he did for the Ennis House fundraiser. My sister and her boyfriend got is for us and we waited and waited to get it framed, ultimately having it framed by Link at Frame Fetish. Link did incredible work on the matte. After some virtual digging I may have another 1 or 2 to share.
Love the pictures, frames, and rooms in this thread!

Hey Kev,
Welcome to TC. Wow...that is one of the nicest framing job I have ever seen. It totally compliments the Frank Loyd Wright Mayan patterns. Bravo.
