"Mounted on Gatorboard with a white border you would have a very nice print. Glue a standoff on the back of the Gatorboard and you add dimensionality and interest to the scene."

As someone who produces hundreds of print for exhibitions and artists and photographers monthly. the suggestion above alone is only a short term way of display. the print has no protection both mechanically and against light.

If you want to display large prints, generally without glass is bets (although I have done framed pieces up to 3 meters long with glass) the print needs laminating.

A flat mat paper for example photo rag marks if you look at it wrong never mind fades in about 30 years (assuming using epson inks) without glass etc in front of it. to get 70 years + you need some kind of protection, for both technical and light protection, for example you can't really dust a print on a rag paper mounted on gatorboard
