Sounds great Ron, though maybe you should switch to collecting quads,
halfsheets and lobby cards, so you can use the TV normally ( :
Can't beat the real posters of course, but when you're running out of wall
space ... For years I've been toying with the idea of using a projector
onto a white wall. Originally with a slide projector with automated circular
cartridge, but I guess that's quite antiquated now in these days of LCD
video projectors and digital media. Don't know how well LCD projectors work in
daylight, so TV might give a better image.
If you do decide to go ahead with it, please let us know how it looks.

A while ago I came up with the following idea and I'm wondering what some
of you think about it.
I'm saving up to buy one of those LED lightboxes to showcase posters from
my collection. But over here they are well over 300 Euros without shipping
and I'm only able to show one poster at a time. With the prices of LCD TVs
dropping I recently came across a 46 inch HD ready TV with USB connection
and was thinking of using that instead of the lightbox. The TV is also just
over 300 Euros and when I plug in an USB drive/stick with hundreds of high
resolution images in slideshow mode I believe this should work just fine.
When hung vertically of course.
