ABSTRACT:
My lightweight, rigid, aluminum stretcher frame system is designed for the application of artist canvas and sheet vinyl. This is a new method intended for the professional artist and sign manufacturer for mounting original art, printed art, photo art, printed graphic arts and applied graphic arts.
The frames are designed for interior and exterior use. The frames are cut to size with rail lengths up to sixteen feet that make square or rectangular shaped frames. The frames project two inches from the wall and fit tightly to the wall with no visible fasteners. The finish material wraps the front and all edges of the frame and requires no additional framing. The frames have an architectural appearance once mounted to the wall.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
My frame system is designed for the professional artist and sign manufacturers. The fames are designed for mounting original, printed, photo, printed graphic and applied graphic arts on canvas or vinyl.
I know of no documents that would relate to this invention. To my knowledge this would be a new concept for applying canvas or vinyl to a stretcher frame.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
There are numerous advantages to my aluminum stretcher frame system. It provides a new concept of mounting preprinted, applied art or graphic art on canvas or vinyl to a large, lightweight, trim frame. The frames are cut to size, project only two inches and they fit tightly to the wall without any visible fasteners. The finish material covers the front and wraps around all edges of the frame and the canvas or vinyl attaches on the back of the frame. The corners of the frame are designed to tuck and cap the canvas in the corners of the frame. The finish material attaches and is removed easily. The frames are a knock down design making it possible to ship. The frames are designed for interior and exterior use. They require common tools to assemble and mount and they require no stapling, sewing, or gluing
