Recommend a portfolio seller, by rottenredrooster on Jun 19, 2011 21:17:43 GMT 1, Need a new portfolio and I know I've asked on here before but can't find the thread nor remember the places recommend to buy them.
I'm in London so if anyone can give me an idea of where the best place to get one from?

I also believe you can buy online from them.

I can not help in the US but I am sure one of our US friends will be on here soon giving you details. I have seen someone on here or the giant post a link to the equivalent US company selling portfolio's.
However, lets get the art on the walls and not stuffed away in cases!!
Best to use acid free sleeves and not the plastic these come with.

Recommend a portfolio seller, by alison03 on Jun 19, 2011 22:20:43 GMT 1, I'm looking for one too, but I am in the US. Any suggestions on specific portfolios. Brands, etc?
I got my first portfolio last fall based on the recommendations from people on eb. It is the Picturesque Portfolio from Jerry's Artarama online. After reading their reviews and comments I waited till I got a good coupon and scored the 24x36 plus 2 refill packs for about $130 shipped in the US. And so far so good! I really like it - it looks great, it's sturdy, it zips, and the pages are nice and clear. They are a bit flimsy but if you turn them carefully it should be fine.
I know one downside is that sometimes your 24x36 prints won't fit or are just a tad too snug...I guess the conclusion drawn was that when we get measurements for prints it's not entirely accurate - could be 24.2x36.5 for example but is just called 24x36 so of course is just slightly too big for the portfolio. Anyway not sure where I was going with that...just trying to pull as much info from my memory as I can haha
