I'm looking for a portable, fold-able, projection screen.?

I work trade shows and have seen other vendors with these portable screens. Some of the ones I've seen are "accordion" type screens that fold like the old maps you buy at gas stations. Others I've seen are similar to something like a monopoly board, only larger with a fold out on each side. I've searched the internet and checked Staples, Office Depot, Ritz Camera Supply but cannot find them.

Check out Dalite or Draper, both are screen companies that make portable screens and you can get both front and rear projection materials. There are also dress kits available to make your setup look more professional.

There are cheaper versions out there.....but these two make quality products.
