I bought one of those Mark Donahue/Sunoco Posters a year or so ago. I just got around to having it mounted. Only $26 to have it put on a board at Hobby Lobby, FYI. Just curious if anyone had a better idea? I can get it framed, if desired, later. For now, it is displayable and not collecting dust rolled up or risking damage (I hope?).

I waited a long time before I had all my coupons and discounts lined up, and had it matted and framed. (still thought it was pricey)

it s a great looking poster. Be nice to hang it by my Z one day. :)

Getting a nice frame and good non-glare glass is the best way to preserve and display any such item, but it is expensive...  lots more so than what you paid for the poster..  (but I've done that before anyway)...

agreed. Once I learned all that and the price, I was a bit taken back. It is a really great poster though.
Really makes me want the mini lites for my car.

Here is the original post. Maybe you can contact this guy?  He may have more?
As a bonus, that thread discusses why Donahue did not win every race (Hint=H.O.)lol
