Top loader is the way to go. Here is a company who has heaps of sizes just have to see which ones fits the best.

What I do, cuz I have a ton of poster and prints that I have to store. I went and got 2 pieces of acid free foam board (what you use to frame stuff) and got them cut pretty big from hobby lobby. I put all of my posters in there and seperate them with acid free like tissue paper. Then I just put some clips on the sides and put the foam board vertically in my closet for storage. 2 giant pieces of foam board cost me like 18 dollars and I have like 20+ posters stored in there.

This is actually how we pack unframed prints for exhibitions as well. We do try to keep it horizontal as much as possible of course, but if you're sure there's no shifting you can go vertical as well.

The larger art prints are roughly 22x48 inches? I don't think any toploader can fit this the largest they have is 32x43.

I did get some acid free foam board from hobby lobby, they only had like tissue paper you use for stuffing bags that contain birthday presents though. It doesn't specifically say acid free on it anywhere, just "high quality tissue wrap". Would this be okay to use ?

I use glassine paper in between prints. I've even put it between posters and the backing of cheap frames. They are acid free, come in relatively large dimensions and much more durable than tissue paper. I purchase mine from a local art store called Sam Flax. Not sure if Hobby Lobby or Michael's carries it or not.

Received 2 of the 5 ordered. Took one into Michaels as they have a 70% off framing sale that ends today...
Hoping the other 3 show up soon as I got a quote which is good for 9 days based off the dims...
