Photos for a frame?

Post by Revgoon89 »

So the 17th of May will hold an extra special place in my heart. It was the first time in my 25 years on this planet I got to watch us lift a trophy in person. :barscarf:

So as you might imagine, I want to make sure I've got something to remember it by, my plan was to get my ticket and programme framed, but I also thought I could add a couple of photos as well. One of the boys lifting the cup and of Rambo's goal.

I note that there are official club photos on the website, do you think the club would make the basic photographs available for sale at some point? Or would it be better to get them done myself and then frame them? Failing that I guess we'd get some in the membership packs in a few months. :lol:

Any help would be appreciated on this, thanks guys!

On matchdays, there's a great stall to the right of the main entrance of Arsenal tube station that sells great quality prints at decent prices. Many of which are in frames.

I'm not sure if Arsenal's official photo website still exists, but it was obscenely expensive last time I checked it a few years back.

I'd rather not get photos already framed, since I know a store that I can do custom ones for me. I know the stall you're on about though I believe.

You can buy a bunch of official pics, frames etc from here; http://www.arsenalpics.com/arsenal-v-hu ... 13999.html but of course their prices take the piss.

Could probably do something yourself for a fraction of the cost if you can find good quality, hi res photos online. Print them on decent photo paper, buy yourself a cheap frame, might have to take all the pieces to an art store or something to get them to put it together properly for you though...

I just saw, 7 quid for one photo really does take the piss, reminds me of Games Workshop prices almost. :banghead:
