He did not see me coming as I did not purchase any....
I'm going to use MDF and acid free tissue as its more solid.

I am thinking of stopping by Silverprint this week to pick up a few of these:

POLYESTER SLEEVE 30" x 40" (775 x 1025mm) SINGLE £11.36

Quite expensive, but when you think about the fact that all of my prints larger than A1 are worth at least £500 it's not that bad

selwyns do some bigger 'standard' ones:

Ref: 6525 30" x 42" / 76 x 107cm
Ref: 6526 32" x 42" / 81 x 107cm
Ref: 6527 40" x 50" / 101 x 127cm
Ref: 6528 40" x 60" / 101 x 152cm

but you normally have to order 'a few' at a time.  you will need to contact them.  You might be lucky that they have another delivery going nearby.

MFM had some sel sleeves, but do not know what sizes he had or if they are all sold - it was a while back now.

Hi there

Looking for solution to store a 100 x 70 cm (40.15 x 28.74 inches) print

Could that be OK with some acid free paper between the prints ?
www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B001AO12AM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1X6FK5RDHNB96

Or would you recommend any others solutions such as individual acid free A0 sleeves ( even if I don't know where to find thoses in France or shipping to it ) plz ?

Thanks in advance

Hi mate

Thanks for the answer

Where would you please find those furnitures ( based in Paris but willing to have it shipped if needed ) :

- Sheets of A0 acid free mount board
- glassine paper 


You're saying you have an A1 portfolio ? To store multiple prints ? Where did you bought it plz ?

Thanks in advance

I made my own flat storage from materials at a hardware store. Firm, thick plastic with a fold back sheet of plastic on top. Looks dope. Pain in the ass to make though haha

Hi for us depending on how long the prints will be in storage you can place them in between thin cardboard pieces at a room temperature area, not too humid and for even better and longer protection place them in between acid free foam boards which are used for sealing images in museum quality frames.

Excuse me if I missed a reply that might have said what I just stated.

This is expensive artwork so you need to be ready to invest a little to store them well. No rediculous figures but no peanut sleeves either.
If UK based your best option is to Google Selwyn sleeves. Get them to email you a current price list and choose however many sleeves you need. Quality is amazing and they will be delivered in a sturdy cardboard box that you can store them in under your bed. These are not flimsy portfolio sleeves but a thick conservation display type you see in galleries.
For an idea of price I ordered 3 very large ones and 3 mid size in the premium quality and set me back £160 after postage, tax and the fees for splitting the boxes.
That's like half the cost of framing one of the big prints I ended up storing.

AO plan chest?

I got a pair made A0, 4 draws high, that stack if floor space is needed.

Mine were from trees felled in the street, that would otherwise have gone to a power station.. so sort of recycled. Oak and Walnut.

You could get a 2 drawer one made which should fit under the bed.

Take a match to them...

I have a 150 cm print X 80cm,really stuck for ideas to store acid free

Hi - sorry if this is off the mark and more than you are willing to undertake.  As it seems you have numerous pieces and most likely going to add to the collection may I suggest a couple of ideas.  Firstly I am in the US so using inches so please excuse:-)

On the pricier side - check auctions / used furniture stores for an architects draw cabinet.  Once in a while you can find coffee tables with a large draw. Although assuming you live in the UK a 5ft x 4 ft coffee table might be a squeeze.


Cheaper option - looking as this as a long term solution build a draw with lumber to slide under the bed.  Dumb arsed advise before hand - make sure the bed has room underneath, many have supports in the middle, and measure the height.  Assuming A0 size (approx. 46 x 34 inches) look at building a box with dimensions of 48 x 36 with a 1/2 inch base (standard off the shelf lengths here).  I would recommend a handle on the front and small caster wheels for ease of movement.  One area you might run into price is that A0 is oversize for framing materials, standard is 32x40, and price increases considerable when going up in size. I would recommend you line the box (wood is acidic) with acid free foam core - adhere to the sides with a strong double side tape - oddly carpet tape works well.  Between the prints, or wrap each piece with acid free glassine paper (you can buy rolls 36" wide) check amazon (not sure if links allowed search canson glassine).  Finally, would suggest a piece of plexi / acrylic appropriate to the inside dimensions of the box - with a sick on handle.  This will help stop dust bunnies etc and allow weights wo be placed on top helping to flatten out the prints.  

Not sure on UK prices but rough price conversion estimate:
Wood 30 quid 
hardware (wheels / handle / tape) 15=20
Acidfree foamcore - 10-15 (check if an art supply store has it in stock or your local framer can order you 40x60 if not use standard 32x40 and might be cheaper)
Roll of glassine 40 (should cover 15 prints fully wrapped)
Plexi - 30 ( you do not need UV / etc) 

Joy of a well earned pint after building the thing - priceless.

Again sorry for rambling but hope this is of use.

On the wall?
