Cheap Frames?

Buying Frames is the point where autograph collecting can start to get a little expensive. I was just wondering if any one knew of some place on the internet, or in some store that cheap (but good) frames could be purchased?


Thank you,

If you want to make it less expensive you can buy a binder at an office store that holds over 100 autographs in plastic sleeves. When I started I wanted to frame them all so much but when you start to get a lot then that is just too much money. Plus you would have to get different size frames, as not all celebrities send the same size autograph.

I do the same! :D It works great, and it's cheaper. The plastic sleeves are great because like Dubsbball14 said, it'll work for any size photo that is 8x10 or smaller. {up}

They do work great! I think mine even hold 8.5x11 size photos.

I think I just got them at an office store and it said it fits 8x10's but when I put my 8x10's inside there is still about an inch room to spare.

You can get them anywhere. I got mine at Walmart.... yes I'm cheap. LOL Oh well, I'll spend the money I save somewhere else.

[agree] I use plastic protector sheets & a binder too!

As for frames, there are some nice, cheap ones in Wal-Mart or Michael's Arts & Crafts Store (esp. when it's on sale!) :D

Hope that helps!

And you can always select your favourites and just frame those ones!

I have 4 of the big binders full, frames are pretty much out of the question for me,
