Hi everyone,

it's a long time ago i planned something that i was able to finish today. Well, there are still some things to fix, the Poster slips a little bit, the TTT cards have to go to the left and ROTK to the right, but i'm very happy with the result so far. Although i would have prefered to have 34 Cards instead of 35, i found no way for the last one than the way you can see here.

So for everyone's pleasure, take a look:  Cheesy

That's amazing Tower!  It looks beautiful!  Grin  Did you get all the signatures yourself?  I've never seen a map like that with autographs on it.

Thanks everybody.  Cheesy

I bought the poster from this seller below (another example) a long time ago. Maybe it's real, maybe a fake, i don't know. But i like it.  Grin

Thomas:

That is one of the most beautiful displays I have seen for The Lord of the Rings!!   Smiley    At least you are displaying your Clothing cards while the rest of us have them hidden away in plastic protectors, books, or drawers never to see the light of day except on rare occassions.   Tongue  We spend so much money on this stuff and no one sees it nor can we enjoy them as we should!  You put us to shame!!   Smiley

Well, i wouldn't say that of course. And all my Potter cards are still far away from the light in binders too. But this one was a "must" for me.  Cheesy But it took a long time to manage it.  Tongue

That looks fantastic. Well done!

I've actually purchased several signed LOTR photos from that seller. She has always been very good to deal with and definitely seems authentic. I'd love to hear what other members think.
But in the end, as long as you like it, that's all that matters. As you rightly say. Thanks for sharing.

Just wanted to say that when I saw how they were framed it took my breath away so very aesthetically pleasing to the eye, yes i know big words for little old me, Roll Eyes.

I'm now wandering if its possible to buy frames like that over in the UK to get our batman begins cards done similar to protect then have the autocards in another.

Cheers

Paul

Anything is possible with a little innovation and imagination Paul.   Smiley   I think your Batman Begins cards would look great done in a similiar fashion to Thomas's Lord of the Rings display. 

I too have purchased Lord of the Rings autographed photos from JakesMom and have been very pleased with them.   Smiley

Make sure you get your Batman cards framed with archival quality glass.  That will keep out the harmful light rays and protect them from fading.  Smiley
