    Does anyone have a poster book/holder to hold all of their posters in?

    I've got all these posters from my shows laying around in tubes, and I know that is not good for them!

    If anyone has one and can direct me of where to buy one that be amazing. thanks!

    Depends on the size of your posters. Itoya makes a great 18x24 portfolio. It has 24 pages so it holds 48 prints. I have a couple of these (and several more in smaller sizes) and they are great. For anything larger your only option is the 24x36 Picturesque Portfolio. It only comes with 5 pages but you can purchase additional pages and I think it holds up to 40. The 24x36 portfolio is pretty pricey though (~$150) and the refills are ~$40-$50 for sets of 5 pages.

    Thanks, I need one to. The art store in town here hasn't been very helpful, they can't even find me one to accomodate my 18"x24" posters, what a joke :evil:

    I have a HUGE one. ( portfolio ;) ) It's 24 x 36 and I am dropping hints to my wife that a smaller one would make a great Christmas gift.

    That's my plan too. You get those done professionally, or do yourself??

    I did them myself. Went to Michaels to buy everything. The frames were 40% off and I bought the mats separately. Ended up costing me about $160 all together for all 3. I just really wish I had some anti glare glass though.

    This is awesome!

    And exactly what I had in mind with the size/orientation of the posters. Now I need to get off my butt and make it happen! :D

    Yep, I ordered 2 frames from them this weekend for my PJ20 posters, can't wait till they get here. I'll post pictures after I'm done. Still looking for a display case/shadowbox to put my other memorabilia in.

    Awesome work on that...once I get the Klausen poster my trio will be complete and I'm hoping to do something very similar to yours. I'm very jealous!!!

    NEVER buy frames or anything like that from Michaels unless they are on sale. They run those coupons and sales every couple weeks. So if you go in and it's full price just be patient and try again next week.

    And thanks for the compliments guys, I appreciate it. I was proud of the way they turned out for how much I spent on everything.
