Itoya multi-ring binders?

Post by ego »

Hi everyone,

I have recently discovered that there is a Mini version of the 11 x 14 landscape Itoya Multi-Ring Binder (https://www.jerrysartarama.com/itoya-ar ... on-binders). Anyone has tried these Mini version and can indicate how it compares to the regular version?

I can't say I have tried them, All my stuff not framed are in regular Itoya

I don't have that landscape binder, but I would assume it is like the landscape Itoya portfolio. Apparently, I read that the landscape Itoya portfolio has the cels open up towards you or something with it already facing the right direction to the viewer. I do not currently own an Itoya binder or portfolio, but I did order one. So, I would take my answer with a bit of trust.

I have a few of the Itoya 11x14 (regular not landscape) multi ring binders. They cost more than the regular portfolios but the quality is very nice. The outside covers are very thick plastic and stand up well. Your cels will feel very protected in them. I also find the clear pages are more crystal clear compared to the regular itoyas which makes viewing your cels even nicer. Btw, what you have linked in your example looks like another version of binders with smaller/mini binder rings. The spine looks narrower than the regular Itoya binders so it might fit fewer pages. I don't own the mini version but I'd assume it's the same quality as the other binders but in a slimmer format.
