Best storage & presentation portfolios according to redditors

Get an archival grade portfolio from amazon. One 18X24 (most fit in this) and one bigger eventually. This will allow them to be stored flat and you can flip though it like a picture book when you want haha. This is the one I use https://www.amazon.com/Itoya-Profolio-Evolution-Storage-Display/dp/B000H7N4H2/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=18x24+archival+portfolio&qid=1563215754&s=gateway&sr=8-1 and it’s been great.

If you tend to buy a lot of posters at shows, but don't have the wall space or money to hang them, I recommend getting an art portfolio to keep them in. Keeps them flat, and it's easy to flip through. I have one full of prints, including one for every NIN show I've been to.

Maybe try something like this, you gotta find it in the right dimensions though.

I just did a quick google search so I dunno if that's what you are looking for.

I would stay away from metal for portfolio prints that are viewed closely. Assuming you are talking about dye-sublimation, the resolution is noticeably lower than paper.

But if you still want to put the prints in a portfolio you might try a Screwpost book with adhesive strips (e.g. https://www.amazon.com/Pina-Zangaro-Adhesive-Strips-10-Pack/dp/B000HC1PT6)

I used to have a small art portfolio book which has plastic sleeves, (example)

Now I use the BTS Wings Tour Ticket Album which is a little binder with plastic sleeves (supposed to be for tickets but most pcs fit also). You could try checking if any of your bias groups have that because I've seen ones for other groups. I like that I can store my PCs in official merch!

I use this, and it work very well:

I use the 9x12 size

You can also get it at Amazon:

Is this similar to what you are looking for? Try searching for "9x12 plastic sleeve" instead of bag. Or you can use a portfolio as well. I hope this helps! You can also use a fixative to spray onto your work to prevent damage when handling.

After some price hunting and meeting basically needs. I have found these
Lion File-N-View Presentation Display Book, 12-Pocket, Black, 1 Book (41012-BK) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0007KPY54/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_-hQSCbK5DMMWF

I think an artist portfolio book is probably the closest to what you're looking for.

I just started printing and have been using Itoya Art Portfolios and really like them so far. Might be worth checking out something like this ITOYA Art Profolio 4 x 6 Inches Presentation/Display Book and I know they have other products out there as well that are similar like this one which I think is the version Im using in 8x11

This is the smaller version of what I have but I think it would be better for stickers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0096XSB58/ref=sspa_mw_detail_4?psc=1&smid=A2FQ5GG01HBOZ1

It’s the Itoya art portfolio

I always bring a smart black display book that holds any relevant certificates and qualifications. Sometimes employers might want to take copies of qualifications. I also always bring my passport and driving licence on the off chance they will want to see or take copies of right to work evidence.

I think having a file makes you look smart and prepared - even if they don't want anything that's in it! The one I use is this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rexel-A4-Professional-Display-Book/dp/B0088CN1S0

Haha you and me both, I'm currently thinking about using this one: https://www.amazon.com/Itoya-Portfolio-Photo-Album-Photos/dp/B003LLF1LI

How To Flatten

First thing to do is get them out of their tubes. Inks can get old and will want to hold their shape. When you go to unroll the print, the ink may not want to unroll (this is worst case scenario, and takes a lot of time to happen). Lay them out, and try to get them to unroll a little on their own over them. Don't force them right away. Then you can use poster weights, or anything that won't damage the paper/ink, on the corners to flatten them further. You can put multiple posters on top of each other when doing this, but it is a good idea to put craft/tissue paper between them. Keep in mind that this process can take a couple weeks to months depending how how much they are rolled, and how long they have been rolled for. Don't try to roll them the other direction to quickly flatten them, you can run into all kinds of problems.

How To Store

I would start buy purchasing a portfolio to hold your posters. I got this one because it is cheap, acid free, and has all the space I need at the moment. There are others that zip up, and others that have rings so you can purchase/install more sleeves later. Another option is a flatfile drawer cabinet. These can be expensive, heavy, and take up a lot of space though. Either way, make sure your prints are properly flattened before you try to store them.

Edit: Just saw your post in Phish Prints on Facebook lol

Why not just use a 4x6 portfolio? Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Itoya-Profolio-Storage-Display-Book/dp/B0000AUR24/

You could try putting them in a picture album. A 5x7 album should work
