| Marty Usher | Hey Laddie - I framed ours last week also. I used black satin finish frame with no mat. Gonna hang it in my office. Marty |
| DR PROWLER | It looks great.
I just received mine a few days ago,and will be sending it to the frame shop tomorrow.
Everyone I showed the picture to,thought it was spectacular!
Can we try and break 100 cars in the next one? |
| BeWare | Roman, I too was hoping for 100 Kats in the picture. We came so close. I actually was thrilled we had 97. Maybe next time. Arranging for this and setting it up took allot of effort. I think Laddie and SuperKat had the most involvement with the photographer. Thanks guys for setting this up. I I have omitted anyone I apologize. I would be interested in knowing how many of the 97 purchased the picture. |
| ROARIN | Laddie,
I think, where to put it is going to be the problem for most people. I had mine framed with a black satin frame and a black matte with red piping, (what else for a Woodward?).
My wife finally consented to let me hang it over the entertainment center.

| SuperKat | Very nice Laddie. I have seen one of these hung over the top of a door, fits nicely. Rich, I will see if we can find out the percentage. John Paul had told me 50%, pretty good for the first time. Some groups sell more once people get familiar with the photo.

| CJ | Laddie, I received my paid for picture, but did not receive the extra copy I won in the Raffle. I emailed Ginger and hope to hear that I will be receiving it soon.  |
| SuperKat | Cj,
Let me know if you do not hear from Ginger. I will give them a call if you like.

| Top Kat | Hey guys , who are you getting to frame the picture. I took mine to "Michaels" and they told me they could not put a piece of glass in the frame , because it was too long. I thought of cutting a piece of plexiglass myself , but decided to wait to see what others were doing. I am glad you posted this. Sooooo, does your picture frame have glass???

| idive | Go to any good frame store and get a Nielson frame. I think you can get them to any length needed, or stock sizes. You put them together yourself. Its easy. They are good sturdy frames. Then any glass company can cut you a piece of glass. Ask for DS glass. It is about 1/8" thick. I got friends in the glass business, so I could probably get it reasonably cheap, if anyone local wants some.
I'm pretty sure the frame brand is Nielson. DS, I think, stands for "double sided". Most regular frame glass I think is SS glass, which is only 1/16" thick. I don't think you really need plexiglass. Regular glass would look alot better.
Nice picture!! Looks good Laddie.  ------------------

| CJ | Laddie, If you are back from your trip, could I ask you to email me the phone number for Johpaul Harris. I've sent several emails and have had NO response of any kind. I would appreciate the number so that I can attempt to contact them to get my picture. Thanks.. |
| Laddie Roussel | CJ. Not back from my trip. Don't have phone # for Johnpaul Harris. however, I did send Ginger a note maybe 10 days ago asking about the door prize picture and saying you were the winner of it in addition to the one you purchased... I have not heard back from her... I'll send a note to Gordon and ask him to call them... Jim. My picture is covered with glass and was done at Michaels... The problem is since it's 49" it takes an oversize piece of glass to cut... |
| thedqman | Hi CJ,
# for JPH is 336 857 2189
Regards Mike DQman |
| CJ | Thanks for all the help! Frank, I received your email with the number and I called and left a message. Johnpaul returned my call late this afternoon. He indicated that he had just sent out several more pictures and he's pretty sure that mine was one of them. Something about they forgot about the free picture...... I hope that whoever is still waiting for one will be getting theirs shortly. |
| SuperKat | CJ, It looks like you have this resolved. Any other problems do let me know via email.

| Top Kat | Thanks Laddie for the reply. I really like "Michaels" frame work and one of their stores is very close to my house. Perhaps I spoke with someone new there. I will try again. If I get the same response, I will try a different location.
