I would like to buy a original movie poster.

Originals? Memorabilia store.

Depending on what movie poster you want: I've attended movie screening for about 10 years and for many of those years I would get a full size movie poster. I must have like 2 or 3 hundred posters. I was going to wallpaper my mancave with all the posters. My point is that places like ebay or Craigslist might be a place to find the poster you want too.

I don't know what an original is. But I've bought from allposters.com. They are on eBay as well.

Original to me means the ones they put up in theatre or bus stop ad space. With fold marks.

Okay. For that I would ask the theater if you can have the poster after they are done with it. I did this at a video rental place and acquired a giant X-files move display stand. It was awesome until our cat got inside it and tore it all the hell. I was so god damned pissed! That was a keeper. It was from the first X-Files movie.

Of course for old movies I have no idea.

Of course but what frames do you recommend ? Any online stores with quality frames for movie posters ?

Or should I just go to Michael's or Hobby Lobby and have them frame it?

Are these websites legitimate for authentic movie posters ?

I got my 2 frames at Michael's. Want to say about $20-25 each. They work fine, but are definately not what id call high quality vs some of the other ones ive seen online.

Edit: Think it was this one but i had a coupon or was on sale for a bit less. http://www.michaels.com/studio-deco...6675.html?dwvar_M10256675_color=Black#start=8

I doubt Michael's sell 27x41 frames.

Just make your own like I did.

They actually serve purpose too but you don't need to put the material inside of them or make the frames that thick.
