Mould (or mold)
Just cleaned the glass on my Anatomy of a Murder 1-sheet and it looks like it picked up a bit of mould at the last place. Cosmetically not terrible, few little, light dark patches, but would like to...

Get rid of the glass and replace it with Plexiglass. Plexi doesn't mold, mildew or etch like glass, weighs half the amount and will not break. It is a bit softer and can be scratched easier but there...
