Larry, the space sounds like a bargain!

Matted prints should go in bins on the floor, unless they are very
small (5x7 and 8x10 can work in baskets on a counter). For 16x20 or
11x14, canvas racks, or the fold up carpeted bins from Armstrong
Display or Pro Panels will work better. IMHO, for a gallery display,
canvas fold-ups look less professional than the carpet bins. You can
also use a floor rail to extend display space.

You can also construct your own to fit the space if you have the
skills and the tools. I have work in two different spaces where I
built a low counter and made bolsters to keep prints from tipping over.

The second shot on this gallery website shows an example:

I think I would forego the LCD display based on return on investment,
unless you want your potential customers to focus on event photography
rather than the work for sale. OTOH, if you have the space and the
money, it's a nice addition.
