 I ship my window cards by placing in a window card bag, sandwiching them in 
U-Line 18 x 24 flats (as many as I think are necessary to protect the value) 
and then use a U-Line folding clamshell S – 22115 on the outside

great info i just gavea man 2 Uline catalogs..btw they are haveinga sale 
on some boxes 30-40% off sale..and the shippingis not bad from chicago 
to Toledo..
I am carefullon exact size boxed however the 14 22 is interestsing i 
would use pad to beefup incase the box gets hitonten conveyer..my rule 
is to float the packageinthe box in case its struck froma sharp subject 
i like to havea few inches around the item and use foam or bubble wrap 
oreeven a hard substrate..
however if the items are say multiple window cards and can be packed 
together,,then wrapped in foam 1/16 is good theni rap in kraft paper ora 
one sheet
and if it fits i wrap in a shrink wrap pouch and it protects from water

so a box say 15 x 23-24 would be prefer against damage
but it depends on how many youship ata time..

I use to get window cards printed by tribue show printand they had boxes 
thatwere folder type that fitas i would get 100s ofposter they used 
banding to keep it tothe..we used them forshows so we were not concerned 
about damage the more they actas a monolith structure

the big variable is how many and what vintage and  variables when 
packing...and is it replaceable.. a newer one can bea simple 4 pad sheet 
corrugated sheets some ta[e and kraft paper.theysell rolls at home deep 
as drop cloth paper,,,and any old box can be cut to size with a Box
