After looking to buy one of these for a while, but never being able to find one I stumbled across this site:

www.graphicsdirect.co.uk/categories/5/Portfolios.htm

I would like a good quality A1 portfolio, but there seems to be a variety of types with quite different prices.

If anyone could recommend anything, I would appreciate it. TIA

i bought the A1 Jet from these guys and some acid-free sleeves and it suits my needs fine. As important for your valueable prints (until the prices drop -see other thread ) is to add a backing board [bought at a local art store] to the sleeves as well. But the Jet A1 was fine for me. I dont carry my port around, just use it for storage. Good for basic needs. No need to drop a mint imho. Spend that cash on art

Think there was a note on another thread that the sleeves weren't acid free although they were hoping to source some soon.

Yes apparently the paper in the sleeves is acid free but the sleeves aren't! Very strange.

EDIT: A1 sleeves in stock at London Graphics but not acid free
