Looking for a 24x36 portfolio like this

I used this for some old 18x24s, but want to find something comparable for my big posters. Any suggestions?

I am in the same boat -- any recommendations on a bound portfolio of that size would be appreciated

I did some searching this morning and found this. Pricey, but this is kinda what I expected for a portfolio of this size. I'm tempted to get one (and refill sleeves) for my 24 x 36 posters.

ouch. pricey is right. about $575 all in for a portfolio and inserts to hold 80 prints. Still probably something we all could use/need.

I just have a large 33x44 sleeve I keep my prints in. Put acid free paper in between each one with an acid free foam core backing for support. Cost me around $30-$40 for everything.

Those that I don't frame I keep keep in tubes.

I suppose I could use something like this but I generally don't buy anything without plans on framing it. I'd rather put that money towards a custom frame job. I guess if I collected prints to fill a portfolio this would be ideal but I'm not really into buying art if I can't display it.

Agreed. The sleeve is just storage until I can save the funds for framing. Thinking about trying DIY framing.

I hear ya, but man at 200-300 bucks, that adds up fast, and there's some really great pieces that I don't want to have to pay quadruple for down the road.
