Hello Philipp
Its not the sleeve, its the SIZE that matters.
The sleeve you buy from Bags Unlimited is sized so that *their*
backing plus a poster fits very snugly in it, hence, there's no room to
sag.
However, in the system you're looking at, the bags will be 33x44, no
backing, and we don't know how loose fitting they are. Think of a
modern, heavy mylar poster, sitting in one of those oversized sleeves, don't you
feel it might sag? Same thing with a linenbacked poster.
One Sheets from the 40's or 50's are lighter but were previously
folded, would they not sag along the fold lines when placed in an oversized,
(possibly) loose bag? I thing they will.
Hope this helps,
Zeev

Thank you very much for your reply everyone that replied and commented.
The real question is do poster start sagging? What about the mylar and backing
from Unlimited? These posters will go sagging as well...am I missing
something? I guess this means that all these items being sold by Unlimited are
dangerous for collectors. Why would you ever buy these backings and expensive
mylar and then the poster will be sagging? It does appear that the ultimate is
storing flat but I still do not believe that the poster will be sagging....the
paper will adjust....we are not talking about 50 years of storage....this
system will allow you to look at your posters much more easily than being
flat....I am getting confused....I know Ron borst which I met at the Star Trek
Christies preview auction review in LA has many very expensive items on the
wall in plastic, like in a poster shop....sort of so he can look at them and
save space...these posters did not go down at all....I have seen them...what
do you think everyone? Does the backing and mylar will be sagging down the
paper and I believe this is a great system....it keeps it closed down pretty
well and then if you want to look at them...it opens up big time....so you can
look at your treasures....maybe it is really better to keep your posters on
digital images and have the original posters buried away...but I believe
nothing is better than see them in the original form....
Please let me know yoru thoughts and ideas.
Thanks
Philipp
