Larry Berman commented on Connie's blog post Booths Down the Middle?

"Are you talking about a straight line show? And will there still be room for the artists to drive to their spaces to unload and load. I would think that back to back lets the public concentrate on the art without being distracted by the booth behind…"

Larry Berman replied to Janice Jones's discussion Prints of original illustrations vs original work

Larry Berman replied to Adam Scales's discussion I need a new system for storing and transporting prints

"32x40x2 empty matboard boxes? Or do what a lot of other photographers do and just use them for display and drop ship the finished piece.
