All my posters are already stored in a acid-free storage box, professionally made in US to keep old magazine, and old stuffs, this box protect the paper from the light and humidity! There are great! My problem is that I have a few things that I want keep out of my box and than I need this sleeve, in US it cost $7.00 each, I don't know if in EU those can be cost less

May be expensive the shipping to IT but belive me, it worth the cost.. you can store your poster under the bed without surprise!

Frank to keep posters in a good condition then do not roll them and store them in a tube. Buy flat file or a storage box and lay the posters flat inside.

As you can see all the posters can be store flat and protected, obviously they can't be dispayed in this way...

Anyway, none can hook me up?

so i think to keep posters in a good condition it is the better way but i would like to display some of them on the wall and some in a art photo book ....maybe i can do it by myself
how do you say that transparent sleeve? how can i found it on ebay or in shop like massimo asked before?


do you think also that posters dispalied can be protected from the light? should i put it not in front of the light???
