Edison Banner Sign framed and hung.
I was finally able to get my newly acquired Edison Banner sign framed and hung in the music building.

Re: Edison Banner Sign framed and hung.
All I can say is, "Wow." An entire building for your collection? And here I thought I was lucky to have a nice, big room for most of them. And what a collection!
I'll bet just getting that banner framed cost a pretty penny, too. Nice framing like that doesn't come cheap.

Re: Edison Banner Sign framed and hung.
Thank you. I built the frame for all of the banner signs myself, so just the cost of wood and paint and a little bit of time and effort. The Edison banner is 10 ft long by 38 inches wide, so most framers wouldn’t touch it.drh wrote:All I can say is, "Wow." An entire building for your collection?

I am more of a hardware and machine collector than software or record collector. I mostly like the early and historically significant. I like the really rare early records which I mostly display in a glass display cabinet. I don’t have a huge volume of more common 78’s or cylinders so storage for that has not been a issue.
