Helen:

 

Because of the odd size of the poster (14 x 20)  it can be a problem finding a frame. I got my frame from these people:

 

http://www.americanframe.com/

 

Cost me about $30 for a standard black metal frame, although I could have selected some cheaper options with regards to the plexiglass and such.

down below. Inside a stripey tube (looked a lot like a Christmas
candy from the Country Store) was a shiney, very professionally
rendered poster of our beloved Gideon. It's beautiful, Neil! Thank
you for offering this to us. It's a treasure and I will take very
good care of it until I can afford the frame!
