    John, 
    I think we have something like that at the Parker Street Facility that
    styros prints, or posters.  Shrink rapping, I'm not sure of.
    Just checked with Employee relations, the Photo Lab at Parker Street
    in Maynard does the work.  I bet, they'll do it for you at cost, or
    show you what to do.
231.3OK, how about uncut sheets?SMAUG::SPOONERDon't dream it...Be it.Mon Jan 14 1991 15:018
	On the same topic, how does one protect uncut sheets of cards?
	Framing will be a problem (I think) due to the overall size of
	the sheet.  Does anyone protect them or do they stick tacks in
	them like some store owners?  Please not the tack method!

	Thanks,
	-Pete
231.5try Rotmans...???CECV03::LERRAMon Jan 14 1991 18:485
    A friend of mine recently picked up a 'semi-rigid' holder for an uncut
    sheet of TOPPS cards. He thought he paid $12 or so, at Rotmans.

	I called Rotman's a while ago and asked, "Do you sell anything that
	protects uncut sheets?"  The answer was no, and that was it.  Is
	there an item in particular that I should ask for?
231.7Rotman's does have itSMAUG::SPOONERN.Y. Giants--1990 NFL Champions!Thu Feb 07 1991 12:139
	re: .6

	I had a friend who lives closer to Rotman's stop by one day and
	pick up a flyer of items for sale.  Under the Rigids section,
	they list all sizes of rigids, even large enough to protect an
	uncut sheet of cards.  You first have to measure the sheet and
	then find the rigid to match.  My sheet turned out to be 29" x 43".
	Then call Rotman's and order via the Style Number.

	GOOD NEWS: Rotman's pays for shipping on all orders of rigids.

	BAD NEWS: For the large rigids (like those for uncut sheets), you
		  must order at least 5 to "cover" the cost of shipping.
