Question regarding poster - fine art storage (Portfolio)

[gamingcollector2004]

Hi guys,

Hope all is well,

I am a vivid collector of pop culture posters and fine art related to gamming. I have amazed quite a considerable collection of gaming promotional poster and fine art and I have some doubt about optimal storage and this seems like a good placed to get some guidance. I currently have a 24x36 inches baroque portfolio to store poster and prints and I was wondering how do you ensure proper storage of this a maximum load of it? Given the different sizing Fine art can have, A1 posters and US poster usually 22x28 inches I am now seriously wondering how to prevent indentation and proper way to organize the set up.

I am currently storing the binder flat and I was initally planning to fill it up to the max recommended capacity of 100 prints but, now, it doesn't seem wise. Would the following approach be the best for long term archival

Limit the poster capacity to 60% of the max indicated capacity ( so 60 prints). organize from bigger to smaller the prints? So starting from A1 section going all the way to 22x28 inches (is close to B2) and putting the fine art where it's closer to that session?

Would love to heard the approach on this

I have one of those as well. They are quite large, I store it under a bed so its always lay flat. No issues for the temporary side turn when going through a room.

for smaller stuff there are much cheaper options so I have one that is 18x24 I then put stuff that size or small in there and it doesnt move around too much. I also have some stuff that is smaller than 24x36 in the portfolio. For the little transport within my own home, no issue. If i was concerned about it, then I would put the smaller art in a plastic sleeve then stick the sleeve in the portfolio page and then take acid free tape and tape a part of the plastic sheet to the inside thus its not flinging around in the bigger page but also I didnt put tape directly on the art.

Same I think 60ish prints is good for the portfolio, also it gets much too heavy to really move around. I don't think size would matter but I still have my 18x24s laying on top of the 24x36s
