Art was science. Look at the gorgeous color. The fabric is like a thin canvas. Metal rails top and bottom. Its going on my wall. ... After I figure out how to safely mount it.

You should get that scanned in high-res for posterity. Look for a reprographics shop nearby. Hell, if you can find a place that does quality work, you can sell prints on Etsy.
The material looks like what we called "vellum" and was a common way to print on longer lasting material, a sort of translucent plastic. Is that what it is?
Its not vellum. Think back to science class. The fancy roll up maps and charts. That fabric stuff. Not quite as heavy as the big world maps tho.
You've made a solid suggestion there. If I did sell it in any way, I'd probly recoup my costs and then release it under some free license.
