Glory (1989) Theater Banner

bvelke

Please forgive a newbie for not knowing the right lingo. 

I've got a 3'x8'(ish) horizontal banner of the 1989 movie "Glory" (Matthew Broderick, Cary Elwes, Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman) with a big battle scene and the stars' names along the top.  It is on material that feels like canvas or some kind of fabric.  Sorry, it is in storage and I won't be able to get to it for proper measurement and photo for a couple of days - but I'm guessing that some of you here know precisely what I've got. 

It came directly from a theater after opening night, is in pristine condition, and is currently rolled in a tube.

I'm hoping that someone can give me a sense for what it is worth and give me an idea about how it should best be stored/framed/mounted or whatever in order to preserve its value?

Thanks.

Matt

One sold on emovieposter back in 2012 for $28.


Unfortunately large posters are not desirable because of their size. Cost of framing far out ways the value of the poster.

Thank you, Matt.  That's very helpful.

Not desirable, says the guy who hangs banners in his house. 
That said, I do agree with your assessment of the original question.

Hehe, you got me Rock. Got one over my bedhead. Hand made. Not the best but does the job.

You’re preaching to the converted, my friend. I like banners and other large posters. They are undoubtedly a pain to frame, but they’re cool.
