For posters that I wont be framing right away, what is the best way to store them? I was thinking like a portfolio type of thing that way they can be flat and I wont have to store them in the tubes. Anyone have a suggestion? Where would I even buy these portfolio cases? Thanks for any advice you may have.

    I checked amazon but mostly Poster Tubes with a sling to carry them came up.

    Cheap quick fix:
    1) Go to Staples (or similar), or Michael's arts/crafts
    2) buy the following: cardboard presentation display (20"x36" or so, with the folding flaps) and a roll of craft paper
    3) just about every PJ poster is smaller than those dimensions, and you can just place them all inside the cardboard separated by craft paper and fold the flaps to keep it all intact. As long as you're just storing them under a bed or something, it works fine. Not for super long term but quick, cheap, easy, and flat. All in cost is about $10-15.

    No problem, happy to help. Just keep in mind that it is only good for storage, as you can't very well flip through them once they're in the display. I've probably got 25-30 like this right now. Klausen's PJ20 and Billboard PJ20 are the only two really pressing its dimensions. The only print I have that wouldn't fit is the Klausen AC '05 - good thing it's already framed!

    My billboard and Klausen are at the framers as we speak. My girlfriend got them done for me for V-Day partly because she was so scared she would ruin them putting them back in the tube and our puppy finding his way into the closet lol.
