Subject: low cost large sized posters?
We are preparing some wall posters for our museum and are interested
in how to do it inexpensively. We need to design, print, mount, and
display them. I think about 24x36 would be OK for the size for most of
them.
Any suggestions? Have you done it yourself? We had an estimate of
$300 per poster (I think those may have been 3x4 feet) to take our
pictures and text and create the mounted poster. I tried creating some
posters with Printshop, printing them in some smaller pieces, assembling
and spray gluing them to masonite (cost of about $10 per poster), but
they look pieced together and sort of less than professional!
The local printshop wants $75 just for a single piece poster print
from our print ready file--seems pretty steep! Then we would have to
mount them ourselves and hang them.
Thanks
