I'm not sure where to put this, but here goes.

I need some help coming up with a way to display a double sided poster. My MIL gave my oldest son a poster that shows specifics about Noak's Ark and the story of Noah on the back with an artist's rendition of what the ark must have looked like on the front. Very neat! But I have hesitated to put it up in his room because it would cut off access to one side of the print.

I have thought about punching holes in one side and attaching key rings so that it could be hung on the wall but still flipped around. I have hesitated because I was worried about the poster ripping but I guess if I reinforced the holes it would be OK.


Does anyone have any ideas? How do you store your posters? Are they all displayed or are their other ways to store them but keep them accessible?

Is the poster too big to be laminated? Than you could put grommets in int and hang it that way. I'd definitely try to get it laminated if it's a great poster you don't want "oockyed" up.....

I have posters that I only bing out when it's time ... but you could hang it the rest of the time and refresh his memory about the other info when you're studying that ....

It came laminated but it seems like a very thin lamination at least compared to the stuff I had laminated at Office Max last month. Can you re-laminate a poster or double laminate it to protect it? I like the idea of grommets. I will have to see if they would cut into the picture/information too much.
