I am attending a Chipper Jones signing in the next couple of weeks. Chipper has been a hero to me my whole life and I wanted to get a 20x30 picture (largest costco can print) signed by him to get hung in my house. I was wondering how I should go about getting a picture that big signed. Is there something I should put it on to keep it flat? Any tips are welcome.

I would either try to find a poster tube to roll it up before and after the signing or find some large pieces of card board you can tape together to make a carrier for it.
 
They make large top loaders for posters if you search around. Not sure if you'd be able to get one dlvd in a couple of weeks. I would use two large pieces of cardboard for the short term. There also should be some 16x20 photos of chipper if you search as well. Not sure if you'll lose some of the crispness and clarity if you blow up a photo at costco. Good luck.

As said, a 16x20 would be easier to find for the desired photo and also easier to get a Top Load for. And later, if you want to, a Frame.

Just be careful to make sure you let the sig dry all the way before putting back in the Loader...

20x30 piece of foam board (which is standard size in stores) w/ blue painters tape holding the photo down.

Thanks for all the tips. Think im going to go with a 16x20. Cheaper frame and a hell of a lot easier to deal with. Thanks!

If you are going to have him sign it on something to keep it flat, don't use cardboard use foam board. Cardboard has ridges in it and foam board does not. If his marker gets caught on a ridge, it'll ruin it.
