Massive World War 2 Map

Post by RobCorlett »

Hi All, I have been asked by a customer to find some way to display a 4 x 2 Meter Russian WW2 Map. They want it be rollable so it can be easily transported so I was thinking of a brace bar at the top and bottom which it can rolled around, and the poles need to be on the rear as the map has detail to the edge. Does anyone have any ideas on how to attach the map to it or anyone who supplies the poles? Wantage Rob

I would suggest that the map be conservation mounted on canvas just like antique posters. Wood rods (or a window shade rod with a working mechanism can be added after the process. At 4 m the rod would have to be spliced together.

This is not a cheap project at 4 m x 2m.
