Hanging up awkward poster.

I'd like to hang up this poster:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/076070970X/ref=s9_simh_gw_p14_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

It's 15 feet long and kind of awkward to deal with.

I talked to a frame maker and he said it would cost huge buckets of money to build a custom frame for it. So, that's not really an option.

Any idea how I can hang this up and have it look some what nice? It's going in my home office/library.
I'd rather not want to damage it if possible.

    Get something to back it with; backerboard, foam core, plywood, your call, and spray glue the poster and backing together. Then hang it with velcro (they make some seriously strong velcro).

    Personally, I would probably cut it into smaller posters with a razor knife, and use that poster goo stuff to hang it.

    What's your budget? Getting it backed in something like Gatorfoam (serious foam board, about as tough as wood with the weight of foam core and a thinner profile) would be brilliant, but cost a bit.
