Sideshow Premium Art Prints Collection

Re: Sideshow Announcing new Premium Art Prints collection

Really? ...Crap.

I have an amazing GOTG print I'm not going to be able to frame anytime soon, so I've kept it in the tube for now. I think I'm going to take it out and try to put it somewhere safe. I don't want to keep it rolled up and risk damaging the print; I'm not going to be able to replace it if something happens to it.

I'd definitely pick up something to put it in, and not just take it out and hide it elsewhere. Even with how quickly they shipped Daredevil, it was already completely rolled up once you took it out of the tube. You have to put down weights to view it if you don't want to put it into a frame right away. So odds are that's the same for your Guardians print right now. I'd say that what Zod says here makes the most sense if you have that, plus some of these prints coming!

I highly suggest getting portfolio books for prints. I have several in different sizes for the ones I know I'm not going to get framed soon (or at all). They make it easy to look through so you can still enjoy the unframed prints--plus, they take up a hell of lot less space than tubes.

I'm sure a portfolio can be found for a decent price, and they'll allow viewing until you finally do get around to framing! Zod has a gallery of his own in his portfolio! And you can also swap things in and out! Say you frame the Guardians piece, now that's an open slot for something else! It'd also help flatten them out over time, I'd think. But if you don't want to go that route, I'd at least get a sleeve that will protect and flatten out the print, as those are the most important things while waiting to be framed!

I have a portfolio for the Sideshow prints, but the GOTG print doesn't fit in it. It's massive. I'll have to try to find something else for it.

Hm, if there's a framing store, or a place that sells a lot of frames (I went to Michael's, but I'm sure there are more options) then they may sell sleeves for them if you ask! I wonder if even a generic placeholder frame would do the trick until you get the one you really want?

Is it the 36 x 24 one from Mondo? You could sandwich it between 2 acid free foam core boards, the acid free paper that came with it as protective lining and some framer photo corners. I framed my Ansin MOS print myself after a couple of months sitting in the shipping tube. I remember it being such a hassle to flatten it.

I'm probably going to wait for the next 60% coupon from Michael's so I can have the WW print framed.

Re: Sideshow Announcing new Premium Art Prints collection

Regarding storage, I store my art prints in an archival storage box from this site:

Archival Storage Boxes, Acid-Free Document & Photo Boxes | Gaylord Archival

I think this is the one I have:

Gaylord® E-flute Drop-Front Archival Gallery Box | Photo, Print & Art | Archival Storage Boxes | Preservation | Gaylord Archival

They also sell acid-free tissue which I place in between each print:

Archival Copy Paper, Bond Paper, Backer Board, Corrugated Board | Gaylord Archival

No, it's the one by Alexander Iaccarino. I think it's the same size, though.

After what happened to you I'm never touching any of the SS prints.
