Can anyone recommend a portfolio large enough to store tour posters in? Thx

    What does everyone else use to store posters? Portfolio above doesnt look sturdy enough

    I use the portfolio above and I think it's great. But if you want something better, you may want to look into flat file shelving

    I got the Itoya Art Profolio for the regular sized stuff and what somebody else recommended for larger ones, a trifold foam display board. This is the cheap solution :shifty:
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    That portfolio linked above is what you want. Been using the same one for years.

    My vote is for this as well, it's awesome. Use a coupon code if you can find one for Jerry's (Black Friday?). I got mine for $119.99, best deal I'd seen. Mine arrived with a broken zipper, they sent a replacement immediately, awesome customer service. Worth the investment - awesome to be able to view all my posters rather than have them rolled up in tubes.

    The mentioned portfolio is nice quality and can store many prints. Only issue I have with mine it the ring clips sometimes come apart and the pages come unattached. But the sleeves are acid free and it is big. I don;t think you would be disappointed with it

    Awesome, thanks for the link. I'll check it out. For now I've been using glassine paper between the posters between two sheets of glass. It's worked well, but a portfolio would be much nicer.

    It is. While it's a bit flexible, that's also good. But, it's plenty sturdy enough while not being overly heavy, so you can actually store it away and be confident that your posters are well taken care of, yet still get it out to look at without dread.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    That 24x36 from Jerry's is the best on the market.

    Mine is fairly heavy now, but I have a lot of posters in there. I'm pretty sure I paid under a 100 when I got it, and I probably should have gotten 2 at that price.

    Well, yeah. But any carrier is going to get heavy with PJ fans involved.

    And, I agree. I keep buying more sleeves, and am getting to the point that a 2nd one would probably be in order.

    What I like about it is you can actually view them without feeling the need to frame every one. And it's a lot less expensive than good framing. :lol:

    This looks like a great way to store all of the posters that I am sure we are all buying from the latest tour Hopefully, they will run a great deal starting black Friday. I may have to start dropping not so subtle hints to my wife that this would make a great holiday present (win/win for her because then I can get rid of the tubes that are stacking up in our closet). I did see that there is a 10% off coupon and free shipping using this code WELCOME10FS -- every little bit helps!

    i tried to order 2 of these cases, the 18x24 and the 24x36 with a few extra refill sleeves, came to under $500, but when i went to checkout they wanted $1100+ for postage to Australia, wtf?

    does anyone have a good connection for something like this in australia so i can store/display my prints, cause USA is quite clearly fucked in the head.
