Lovely to see. Do you display your posters and prints or keep them stored in the tubes? I have very few but was wondering using an art folder so they’re flat and I can look at them as and when I wanted.

I collect concert posters and it is vital that these prints be stored flat. Great for you to look at them but my advice to anyone collecting posters that will not be framed is to store them flat, preferably not in plastic sleeves as often these sleeves are cheap unless one is spending quite a price on a professional canavas folder like a boroque folder. It's not just the fact that posters left in tubes will want to stay rolled after a time but the tubes are almost always the cheapest tubes and are seeping acid into the prints, plus the paper used around a poster is cheap and only designed for transport, not for storage.
