    I picked up a two flyers for each of my games and I was thinking of mounting them in a frame vertically (one above the other) showing the front of the flyer on top and the back of the flyer on the bottom. Then I'd hang them next to each game.

    Anybody ever done something similar? Any better flyer presentation ideas?

    Yeah I try & get the flyers for my games & frame them.

    I have one in a shadow box with the old rubbers & whatontsin there as well

    Great idea. The only problem is, wall space becomes the issue. I started down that path, and with the right frame, it can really pop. They certainly look better displayed than in a folder.

    I thought someone started a thread like this already! Flyers are a great way to collect the games you want but will probably never own/afford.

    That's why I'm thinking of placing them vertically (front on top, back on the bottom) rather than horizontally (side by side). Hoping I can put next to each game. Kind of like a description next to a painting in a museum.

    I think these are 12x36 frames they work pretty well if you have a lot of flyers

    That's another option. I could do horizontally and place above the games.

    Funny, I never thought about that, but yeah that would work and allow for more squeezing in.

    I only have two games, so squeezing them in isn't really a problem for me. But I still think I'd prefer a vertical presentation.

    I went to a pinball museum in Florida and I liked how they put some “fun facts” about the machine on top of the head.

    I have flyers from every game ive owned (missing about 20 now since i keep buying). I had them all over my walls at my old house, and they will go back up in my pinball barn once its built. Its nice to look at them and remember your old games. I remember every trip i went on, where i got it, etc. Fun memories. I think ive owned around 80 games, but id also like to do the arcade games ive owned someday

    As someone said above, I did mine in a square featuring games I’d like to have but may or may not acquire. Fortunately I have been able to purchase a couple of them so I just swap them out for other games on my wishlist.
