Does anyone make relatively cheap movie-poster-size frames that would be appropriate for home use? I don't want the full-blown theatre-type wooden or metal cases...just a simple plastic thing that will hold the poster in place without tape or tacks would be ideal. I really just want something like a big picture frame that is cheap and doesn't look horribly ugly.

For temporary use, I bought 2 strips with rollers in them, like they use at pizza restaurants to hold the order slips. You just slide the poster under the roller and it is held up without any pins. Then, when you want to make a change, you just slide out the poster and slide in a new one. I got them at OfficeMax, but most office supply stores should have them in stock or should be able to get them very quickly.

You get some big sheets of clear Mylar and use archival quality tape and make a giant "envelope" to put the poster in. My girlfriend is in charge of a museum and that's what they do to store their valuable posters and stuff. They leave about 1/2 inch over the edges so there's room to tack it up or put it in a frame without touching the poster itself.

Most of mine are as you described and a quick glance at the posters section of ebay will tell if you they are worth real money.

Such as my original 3 sheeters for Star Wars (1977) and The Empire Strikes Back (1980) for example.

I've also got a 3 sheet for Convoy, although somehow, I think it's perhaps not worth as much.
