I've enjoyed these in 13X19 inch (common inkjet print size) for a dozen years, however I've come to feel that size excessive, so now rely more on 11X17 with large white rebates....or to trim to the same image-size leaving the "presentation book" black archival page when I really do want a black surround. The only advantage I've found in gelatin-silver prints has been the ease of printing with black surrounds, an affectation that gets expensive if one has to inkjet that black with pigment.
Galleries might be smarter to use these books rather than boxes or flat drawer-type files, which are both very expensive by comparison, and because these make access and showing a lot easier and involve a lot less handling risk.
I've found these to be wonderful for sharing work with galleries and agencies. Easy handling, protective, non-glare.
