    Someone shipped a Cincy poster in fucking PVC pipe through me to a buyer in Canada. I kept the pipe and put my Klausen PJ20 in it. Pretty sure it won't get crushed. Unless The Hulk comes over & gets a hold of it.

    That may have been me... After the bullshit I went thru with a UPS claim...and working for a company that sells pipe...and having a UPS shipping center on site...it just made sense. I'm guessing the Cincinnati poster made it safe and sound.
    ...So much talk it makes no sense at all...

    for all you long term storage people, invest in some acid free paper to put the prints between. The newsprint and brown craft paper is some of the most acidic paper out there and it will make your prints yellow faster. The poster guys use it because it is way cheaper for the quantities they buy it in. Printing on acid free paper means shit if you store it between two pieces of acidic paper. Think of how yellow old newspapers get....they are transferring all that acid to your 100 plus dollar prints. Same thing with mat boards,

    I seriously thought I'd recieved plans for the Death Star! Haha!! One HELL of a packing job - had to repack it for Steve though. Would have cost quite a bit to ship with the weight.

    I texted this exact information to Derby Dave just the other day. Good information! Never assume that the wrapping material that they use is acid free, even if it is from the artist. Treat your art well!

    YES you did & I really appreciate the heads up!!!
    I knew to use acid-free matte & backing boards,
    but didn't know the craft paper should be acid-free as well!!
    Thanks so much for the info :-bd

    You're gonna love having a flat file...

    that poster addiction can REALLY take off!!
