This setting of Frame option was undocumentated until now.
(search in my archives for relevant questions of mine).

But it is well documentated in the new version. See here

http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/ref/Frame.html

Here are all possible combinations

In[20]:=
frs = Tuples[{True, False}, 4]

Out[20]=
{{True, True, True, True}, {True, True, True, False}, {True, True,
False, True}, {True, True, False, False},
  {True, False, True, True}, {True, False, True, False}, {True, False,
False, True}, {True, False, False, False},
  {False, True, True, True}, {False, True, True, False}, {False, True,
False, True}, {False, True, False, False},
  {False, False, True, True}, {False, False, True, False}, {False,
False, False, True}, {False, False, False, False}}

And here are the respective graphs.

In[28]:=
(Plot[x, {x, -2, 2}, Axes -> False, PlotStyle -> Thickness[0.01],
Frame -> #1, PlotLabel -> ToString[#1]] & ) /@ frs;

Cheers
