Poster protectors


Recommended Posts

Can anyone link me to any of the dealers who have sold the rigid poster protectors. I got one for my suicide squad poster last LFCC but am in need of more. They're around 14x19 in size and like a hard rigid plastic to keep the poster flat. 

Having trouble finding them online so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Most people including me would advise not using them Hayden, if you mean the semi rigid ones that open at the top.  They are not archive safe so shouldn't be used long term, they aren't that easy to get the item in and out of and I certainly wouldn't use them for anything I'd just had signed.  There are plenty of options for carry cases which are a far better option in my opinion.

Thanks so much Raylenth! Will these keep them flat and rigid though?

I do have some signed posters that these will be useful for but I have another poster that needs flattening down.

The cheap see through ones won't as they currently are as they are a bit like a carrier bag.  I have a variety of carry solutions depending on what I'm taking.

I do use one of the clear ones for flat items (I have a couple of different sizes) as I like the fact that items are very easy to get in and out.  I've made it rigid by putting a foam board in it that matches the size of the carry case - that keeps it nice and rigid and if you wanted to be extra careful you could put 2 foam boards inside and put the poster in between them
