Subject: [Bcma-l] portable exhibit display system

 

Can anyone recommend a portable exhibit display system that is appropriate
for museum use? 

 

We are looking for a system that is portable enough to be taken to community
events, light enough to be erected by one or two people, and attractive
enough to be used for museum displays. We would also like a system that does
not look like it belongs in a Trade Show at a Convention Centre.

 

If anyone can provide suggestions about off-the-shelf or custom-designed
display systems, I'd love to hear from them.

 

Thanks very much,
