I know this question comes up at the end of every tour, but how do folks store their posters?

I keep them rolled up, but I would love to 1. store them flat and 2. display them in a book format. This is possible right?

    Cheapest way to store them flat...

    archival box http://www.dickblick.com/zz153/02/ and get some sleeves to put them in, either poly or mylar, depending on what you want to spend. I get my sleeves from bags unlimited.

    Portfolios are a more expensive way to goo....

    I'm not an authority on this but get the A1 portfolio folder...

    for what you pay for posters these days they should be looked after in my opinion

    I recommend checking out Frammingsupplies.com They have great archival quality storage sleeves. They are backed with acid free backing board and have mylar covers. You can put a poster on each side. Great prices in store so give them a call directly. Tell them the the big tattooed guy sent ya.
