The first one has three mats (top one is black suede) and a separate opening for the wristband while the second one has a similar mat scheme but a much more substantial frame (1.5" wide & 1.5" deep).
I wasn't able to make it to Phish's recent, three-night, run on the Mexican Coast but I was able to frame a couple of the official show posters (and watching people dancing in the surf on the webcasts was pretty cool).

I always enjoy framing things that have to do with my favorite band. Here's a limited edition poster and ticket stub from their fall tour opener at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene that recently came into the shop.
For this project I used two layers of Crescent Select conservation matboard–with a second opening for the ticket stub–and 99% UV blocking conservation glass to protect the items. The dark brown frame–one of our value mouldings–is 1 1/4" wide and 1" deep, and has a slight wood grain pattern. Limited edition screen print, Once A Lizard, by David Welker.
For this project I used two, solid-core, Ragmats from Crescent; a dark green for the bottom mat and a neutral tan for the top layer. These 100% cotton mats feature the same color throughout and are the top of the line as far as preservation goes. The frame, from Roma Moulding®, is 1 inch wide with a scooped profile that draws your eye into the artwork. The natural stain mimics the trees in the print. This piece was finished with Museum Glass® for the ultimate in protection and clarity. Visit www.davidwelker.com for more cool artwork. Photographed with glazing in place, so there is some minor reflection. ![]() This limited edition concert poster (hand signed/numbered) and tickets, from Phish's 2012, 3-night Labor Day run in Colorado, came in for framing last summer. Double mat, conservation mounting & glass, in a deep, black metal frame. |
