Playbill Wall Questions

What kind of adhesive and/or mounting equipment do you use to keep the frames on the wall?

Also how do you arrange them? Alphabetically? Chronologically? Autobiographically?

And what color wall do you think best reflects the beauty of the playbills?

I go to Utrecht and buy the specialty masking tape there. It's the one for photographers. I find it is aesthetically pleasing as well as stimulating to the nose.

I rearrange my playbills every week according to the grosses.

re: Playbill Wall Questions

do you change the Playbills also when they transfer from color to black & white? i mean, to show the show's progress?

I display mine like this. I find that MS Paint gives them the look I crave.

Oh, the irony of that statement.

Looking for the right artistic angle, I've only been able to settle on a direct approach to finding that one perfect playbill in just the right spot.

I re-arrange mine everyday depending on how long a show has lasted, if a show turned to black and white playbills, cast changes, and of course what I think of a show. I usually use blue masking tape. It's sturdy, yet it doesn't tear the wall apart either.

I arrange mine by how pretty I think the logo is.
