I'm not sure that's the right word for it, but it's basicly a long clip with a string run through it. you insert the poster into the clip and hang the whole thing from the string. I think there's also another clip at the bottom to weigh it down.

only $3 or $4 if I remember correctly.

hope that helps.

It's a shinny black metal frame. The movie poster I have is larger than any frame Wal-Mart had, so this was the best I could do without paying for a custom frame. It was just under 30 bucks, I think.
