Item Special Note

About the framing:

This piece has been framed using conservation techniques that not only protect the art, but are completely reversible – no glue, adhesive, or permanent fixing is done of any art or objects. All matboards are acid-free and the glass is 99% UV protection. The Museum Glass is the top of the line glazing solution for framing which not only provides 99% UV Protection, but it also provides amazing clarity and anti-glare characteristics. The stamps are encapsulated in sheets of mylar which allow them to be mounted without damaging the stamps whatsoever. The coins are displayed in a circular opening slightly smaller than the coin which allows the coin to be “recessed” in the opening at the same height as the stamp. All frames chosen are made from quality wood products. All work on the designs and the framing, including the visualization preview, are unique to The Great Frame Up and are done on the premises. No art ever leaves the premises during the framing process.
