RE: [Digital BW] Carrying framed prints in a box

2005-10-31 by Ken Carney

All I can tell you is that I had a show of 30 framed prints of about that
size.  The museum wanted to make a traveling show out of it, the shipping
cases for which would cost (me) about $3,000 in their experience.  I told
them I was really flattered and all that, but $3,000 bought part of a new
camera body I coveted or some nice wine I coveted at least equally....I hope
you find a more reasonable alternative. (I got the prints to and from the
place by stacking them upright in cardboard boxes with foam board in between
the frames, in my car and friends' cars.  All that was missing was duct tape
to hold everything together.  But it worked well.)
