I'm liking the first, second, Jerome's (though not the gold frame) and Bob's.
I like the matte held back to show the broadside more. I like to see the deckled edge on the bottom. I like the red in the matte.

I really like Bob's but not with a Red Matte, too much Red for my tastes. I do however *Love* Bob's frame. I think (for me anyway) A combination of Bob's frame, with the lifting of the actual art (showing the deckled edge) and the Black Matte and subtle Red inner of (1).
Now just need to go see my local framer!
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
They all look great. Seeing all these in the same thread makes me feel remiss for not owning one.

I went with just a simple red frame.
This thread is making me wish I hadn't have sold mine a few years ago!

Great! What number/letter is it?
