Portfolio Book

I am keen to put together a portfolio, a book of printed images. I have the printed images (A4/8.3×11.7/210mm x 297mm), now I just need the book. I am looking for something that offers a nice presentation and something sturdy to keep the prints in good condition. How long, perhaps big enough for 20 or 30 prints. Any recommendations? The second problem is that I live in China and I’ll need to purchase on the internet and have it sent to me here. Does anyone out there have any experience in these matters, if so I could use some assistance. Thank you very much, Ryan.

Adam, thank you for that. I have contacted them and it seems they’ll ship anywhere anytime. Cheers. Ryan.

are you looking for something really sleek/professional looking, above the level that QOOP (partnered with flickr) can probably offer? I’m planning on making a (cheap) book through them sometime soon.

Ryan -

I too get my books from House of Portfolios in NYC, and they do ship here to Shanghai. If you would like, drop me a line and we can meet up in Shanghai and you can take a peak at mine. I will actually be ordering another couple from them later this week.
