[QUOTE="research, post: 9554845, member: 22667"]I have two small Navajo (I believe, will be posting them soon for opinions) that I would like to display. They are roughly 20x30". I mainly just care about having them protected and able to be viewed on the wall. I have seen people suggest velcro or tack strips but these seem like they would significantly damage or remove material when removed from the wall. It seems like a basic 24x36 thin poster frame (either glass or plexiglass) would work as a pressure mount, using an acid free backing paper/material. Something like [URL='https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-24x36-Basic-Black-Poster-Frame/2907140899?fulfillmentIntent=In-store&athbdg=L1102&from=/search']this[/URL] Since these frames are not really air tight I wouldn't think moisture would be an issue if displayed in a humidity controlled environment. Is there something I am missing that makes this a bad idea? Thanks![/QUOTE]
