I'll try to remember to take a picture and post when I get home, although I only have 3 loose marquees. Radar Scope, DK3, and Popeye. I just have them hanging loose on the wall in my game room. I'm hoping to make a lightbox that would fight 5 nintendo classic style marquees soon though. I have a DK machine, so I'd put the 3 listed in it, then find a DKJR and Mario to put in as well. Once I get the row of nintendo machines complete(someday I hope), well I guess I'd just sell that lightbox.

To hang my marquees I use 3M Command Picture Hanging Strips. See http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/295818/3M-Command-Picture-Hanging-Strips-Medium/

I like these because:

1. They are reliable. I have 107 marquees hanging in my collection and never had one fall off the wall.
2. They do not put holes in the wall. When I take down the marquees there won't be any holes or marks.
3. They allow for the marquess to be hung flush against each other. Some other types of hooks won't allow that because they are not hidden completely behind the marquee.

Here are some pics of how I have them displayed.

James,
I thought of that, however I am worried about the damage the strips will cause to the marquee. For instance, if you ever want to take the strip off the marquee, won't it pull off some of the graphic since the graphics are on the backside?
