I have some posters of movies and other stuff which I like to have around. I recently shifted cities and rented a place for myself to stay. I can't stick the posters to the walls with cellotape as it might peel off the paint if removed. Also, the landlord won't allow it. Is there anything I can do to hang the posters with threads or ropes or certain frames which can be used?
I live in India, so please suggest methods that use materials available in India.
I was thinking of using 2 binder clips to hold the poster and tie the clips with thread which will pass over a nail in the wall.
Any other inexpensive suggestions?

Yes, binder clips are a great solution. You can put a tiny tack or pin to hang each clip on directly, without using string. If this is "real" paper artwork (like a drawing, print or silkscreen), put a small piece of archival paper, or any good-quality paper, between the clip and the artwork to protect the art from rust or the clip if the air is damp. The front wire of the binder clip can be compressed and it will pop off easily, making a nice clean look. Good luck!
