Picture frame advice.

Hi guys,
With all this extra time on my hands I thought it might be a good idea to get the 2x signed stills that I bought about ten years ago at Comicon framed...
They're signed photo's but the sizes are very odd? 1x is 265mm x 203mm and 1x is 269mm x 203mm. Weird sizes right?
I'm guessing I'll have to seek out a custom framer - any recommendations?
Thanks.

Mount them on coloured A4 card and put them in a standard A4 frame

There are plenty of custom frame makers on the web. don't know if they are working at the moment though.

I used frames.co.uk when I had some frames I wanted to reuse, the pictures were odd sizes so I wanted mounts.  On the website you specify the outside size and the border size.  You can see a picture of the completed mount before you order it.  Quick service and reasonable price.  I have no affiliation to the company.

When I have a print to frame, it always has a mat cut to suit the print/frame. Usually go for 50mm on the top & sides, and 75mm on the bottom. A Tee hinge mount (archival tape across the top of the print holding it on to the mat), then sandwiched between the glass & backing board. Both the mat and backing board are museum grade acid free card.

Do not stick your prints to some random bit of card, and never, ever use spray adhesive. If it is worth framing, then it is worth doing properly (and I pay a local framer to do the job).

Sorry guys, I hadn't subscribed to alerts! 

I got a couple of custom frames from Easy-Frame in the end; excellent service, well happy with the result ;-)

Made to order and a perfect fit. Quick delivery too, considering...

Thanks.
