Thanks for all the responses.

I just got back from taking the letter, envelope and hang tags to a framing shop to get them framed and suitable for display. Boy, are there a lot of choices in frame material and different things. Of course, we're using acid free/rag matting and museum glass and all that. The back side will be glass covered also and cut out to display the back side of the hang tags and envelope. And just using a plain black frame instead of pretty wood, after all, it is a document display. Do you guys agree?

I'll post pictures when it comes home.

Sounds like a great idea. My paper is "to be found" by those who come after me. Of course, I know where everything is.

Bill, Do you really have enough wall space to follow through with this "good idea"? I'm guessing your files fill more than one cabinet.

Right - just like me, but if anyone ever straightens out and organizes your stuff you'll never be able to find it again... I know - I know.

Hello everyone,

I got the letter, envelope, and hang tags back and framed up this afternoon.

Pictures attached. I am not the best photographer in the world and I apologize for that.

As stated earlier, I went with a black frame instead of a pretty wooden frame. This is because it is a document display. Do you agree?
