So has anyone framed any of there DVD covers? I have a few I want to do and not sure how to go about it. I'd like to frame the cover with the disc & insert. Should I go the shadowbox route or trust a framing company with my precious Spielberg autographs?

Candyman- signed by Tony Todd
Screwfly Solution (MoH episode) signed by Joe Dante

Lots of other pics and posters signed by other people.

If you do trust a framing company make sure you insure the sigs.

Shadowboxing might be the best route.

Michael Corvin

How do you go about that?

SethDLH

There are collectible insurance agencies around that will insure your collectibles (autographs, baseball cards, art, comics etc...) not sure about the cost of this, but Spielberg sigs are probably worth the cost. I guess just try to google it. If you have home owners insurance you might be able to add them on to your policy as well.

I think I have a few new ones - need to go through and see what I've already posted though! Here are some of my most recent:




I thought these were neat because Robert Rodriguez was so into seeing the region 2 boxset that he stopped what he was doing and started looking through it with Rose, then took out his camera to take pictures of it.





And, while not a DVD cover (it's a 13x17" poster), it's definitely one of my favorites!

DVDsAreMyLIFE

I love this, I am also a RE fanboy.

SPIDERone

I'm a huge fan of the series! The background used on these pictures is actually a 6 ft x 10 ft. vinyl banner from Extinction (the rare kind! )

A few more - I thought I added these before but couldn't find them looking back a few pages..

Some of them are a little 'foggy' looking since I didn't take the plastic sleeve off all of them (usually once you take it off, the adhesive is no longer good)

























I know I have a few more - I just can't think of which ones :-\

The closest I have is a framed laserdisc cover for "Forrest Gump" signed by 4 cast members along with Zemekis.

At least the clear plastic of the case offers some protection on my signed DVDs. I have around 40 signed ones with only a few snappers or slipcovers signed.

I have alot of autographs,I just need to find time to write them all down here....
Mainly horror films....

SethDLH

Where did you meet Robert Rodriguez and Rose Mcgowan?

Michael Corvin

Is it safe to assume those that have more than a handful of autographs, like posted on this page, live in or around LA?

Torchur317

Or they go to alot of conventions where you can meet alot of celebs in one day/night....

They were at Comic Con this year doing a panel and signing for Red Sonja


I had a few RR movies, a few Grindhouse releases (Planet Terror/Deathproof steelbooks, Planet Terror/Deathproof Slipcovers, Grindhouse 6 disc set and the Grindhouse book), but security said to not bring any personal items out as they were only signing mini-posters for Red Sonja... Figured I'd ask anyways and they were great about it (only asked them to sign the grindhouse boxset, so as not to hold up the line).

That's my favorite! Met Milla and the rest at Comic Con 2007 - they had a very limited signing (~20 people), tickets were given out through a raffle that was not advertised, and the signing was done in a closed room - first time I've seen a signing like that at Comic Con. I was able to get the poster signed as well as 8x10's of Milla and Ali larter.

I just realized I never posted the pics of signed DVDs from Comic-Con '08. I was hoping to get more Ken Foree but he was late and I didn't have much wiggle-room to wait. He'll be there next year as always.

Lori Petty signed "Tank Girl"... she's just as quirky as one would think.


Added Bill Moseley to go with Sid Haig. Hoping to add more.


Added Charlotte Helmkamp to "Frankenhooker" to go with Director Frank Henenlotter. She was VERY nice. Now I just need Patty Mullen


The Ladies of "The Evil Dead" (Betsy Baker, Sarah York, Ellen Sandweiss) signed my Ultimate Collection. They were very nice and quite the bargain at $10 for all 3.

Zodiac_Speaking

My latest autograph was Darren Bousman on my Saw IV blu ray and Terrance Zdunich on a Repo! poster. Plus, I got to hang out with them at Bousman's parents house lol

If I was going to have Cindy sign something, I SO would've done the same thing you did.

TheVelvetRope

I pointed out that it must be a refreshing change from "Laverne & Shirley" and "American Graffiti" stuff she sees all the time. She agreed, and after she signed it, she said, "Oh, I should have written something dirty on it!" and added the "XXX" on it. She said she kept the "flipping the bird" hat from the film but had lost track of it. She was a great sport about it and very sweet. Some more from my collection:

Ghostbusters 2-pack, signed by Ernie Hudson:

(I felt terrible after realizing that his is the ONLY significant name NOT listed on the box.)

Gremlins, signed by Jackie Joseph (Sheila Futterman):

(She only recently learned her character had a first name!)

Happy Days Season 2, signed by Tom Bosley and Erin Moran:


House Of 1000 Corpses, signed by Sid Haig and Bill Mosely:

I always bring dvd sleeves with my to be signed at comic con and wonder con, but often times they wont let you bring in your own stuff to be signed. I have several posters signed by whole casts (Superbad, Pineapple Express, 30 Days of Night, Grindhouse, and more that i cannot think of.)
