    How to display a large flag

    I have an original imperial flag, approximately 6ft x 3ft, that I would like to display. I want to have it custom framed, but wanted to see if anyone has other suggestions for displaying it in a protected manner.

    Hello F:
    Would love to see your flag, and if
    you email me a photo I might be
    able to tell you more about how to
    display it. No sunlight or bugs is best.

          That's excellent Jacquesf! How are the flags secured in the frames? Pins, clamps, etc???

            Thanx, I put the top of the flag around a padded wooden rod that is then wedge into the frame. (bit like toilet paper on a toilet roll holder) Takes the pressure of the flag and avoid using pins, or thin objetcs that can tear the fabric. J

                Nice flag, thanks for the look.
                Again keeping it out of the sun
                & away from moth attacks are
                two main concerns to manage.
                For display, I would clamp the
                top edge to suspend it onto a
                neutral pH padded wall, & with
                the flag under sealed plexiglass.
