I have had pieces that were wrapped for longer periods & they all had
to be re-backed after a period of time
I still have one piece that is wrapped so and I will never remove
it.. I will sell it as is & I will let the buyer have the headache I
have previously had

Subject: Re: [MOPO] displaying three sheets
I would absolutely not wrap the linen as I would a painting
as many of you know I am an art dealer too and paintings are wrapped
this way for several reasons but the main one is to keep the canvas taught
posters have a different tactile strength & stretching the canvas to
wrap four sides would defintely apply pressure that the poster
should not have and you will see cracking in the poster over time.
If I were to use a wood frame, I would only staple the four sides
gently & either flat or just wrap the top edge without looping the
linen "over & back" in other words, only fold over (one single fold)
by the way, for huge posters there is actually an item that looks
alot an old roll-up movie screen like you had in school
the linen fits inside a slot that clamps shut at top and you then
add one more on bottom to keep the linen from curling & bulging

Subject: [MOPO] displaying three sheets
i have wall to wall, ceiling to floor posters in my media
room. nearly 70 in total. 3 are three-sheets (The Stranger,
Gaslight and To Each His Own). i have been collecting for 20++
years. i once had 7 three sheets displayed. (thankfully my framer
salvaged my metal frames.)
i am now debating removing one three sheet and would be able to
hang 9 inserts, or some combination of half sheets and inserts for that space.
it kills me to not have many favorites titles not
displayed. sought after-top titles.
three sheets are great if you have just a few posters. and they
have an awesome presence. but...........
what do collectors really do with six sheets?

Yes, if you don't do it too tightly. Do that too tightly and you
could pop the poster
right off the linen. Remember, it has to breathe. Also, you take
the risk that it will get soiled.
You know, your signficant other throws a drink at you and it hits
Bacall instead. Bad.
This advice from the six sheet King.
Sorry, folks, I couldn't resist.
