Bags unlimited - in Rochester NY and Yazoo tube
I typivally order the 27x41 in pad sheet white one side
in 1000 piece lots right from a local corrogated container converter its
like 75 cent each then
However Bags unlimited will sell smaller units..
always get the flutes running vertical. so the board does not bend..
also get d or c Flute and get about 225-275 Test strength for best
results... 1000 pieces will take up space but are worh the savings in
long haul.. get a dealer to split up the lot and both save.

Hi Rick,
When I was shipping lobby cards and smaller items, I would sandwich
them between three pieces of cardboard and then put that in a manilla
envelope. I never had anything bent. I used 200 lb test cardbaord as I
do now for my frame's shipping boxes. Two pieces of
cardboard, however, is not adequate for shipping and that third or
even fourth piece gives it the extra rigidity it needs. So, that's the
scoop.....ps. for all collectors out there.........don't store your
items in cardboard packaging or tubes for any length of time.
Cardboard is loaded with acid and that is what causes brittlization
and yellowing over time.

To: [email protected]
This inquiry goes out to any of the pros here who ship flat items such
as stills or lobby cards. I am wanting to keep the package light but
strong (and I should mention... as inexpensive as possible). What
strength cardboard are you using? I see sheets of 200 pound strength
cardboard available but is it strong enough. The sheets I always see
are corrugated but are sheets of solid (similar to postal boxes)
available and if so, do you know where? Any advice posted publically
or privately is greatly appreciated.
