Next stop, The Google, and after some searching and comparing, I placed my order with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rockartpictureshow.com\/\">Rock Art Picture Show<\/a> for four acrylic frames with mats into which you can easily slide a standard LP. They&#8217;re great. Here&#8217;s my initial four, but this will be an ever-changing exhibition.
