I haven't received my prints yet, but I will be keeping them an 18 x 24 inch portfolio. I think this will protect them and facilitate access for study. It will also make for safe and easy transport.

I now have the portfolio and it seems huge, but I guess the prints will be too. It has ten archival polypropylene sleeves with acid-free black paper inserts. This means that other flat items can be inserted on the back sides of each page. There's enough room for twenty 8x10's or other stuff. You may also want to put a couple of the prints on facing pages, such as the forward and aft cross-sections.

As soon as I get my prints I'll put up a couple photos of what they look like in the portfolio.

My Blueprints arrived Saturday! YAY!

Really Shiny, really nice. Detail and quality... whoa!
Only thing is, how do you display them? 18x24 is Big,
especially when you multiply it by ten and add the
smaller autographed sheet. -Gonna have to give this
a little thought... The portfolio idea is good, but
you're right about Size. These things are BIG,
and that makes it easy to tear them.

There's a coupon for $25 off the LE of the Serenity Model
when it comes out, or $50 off the SE version.
The difference between LE and SE on the ships, as I
understand it, is that the SE will have a figure of Mal
inside the bridge; kind of like a "ship in the bottle"
trick. There might be other features too, but that's the
one I remember reading about.

ps: In the blueprints, there's a cute touch....
You can see Kaylee's wedding cake dress from Shindig
hanging up in her quarters lol.

"Might have been the losing side, still not convinced it was the wrong one." -Mal

Here's a sample of a simple frame kit. Ten prints and the signature page at $59 a piece is $649 plus shipping. A local frame shop might be a little less. Either that or cheap poster frames. I like my portfolio idea.
