->> Client looking for 5x7s to be signed and given away at appearances. IIRC from attending such things in the past, those aren't printed on photo paper, but something closer to card stock?
Does anyone know a) what to call it so I can atleast search for the right thing and even better b) know a printer that does a good job at a good price (the individual is paying for them, not the organization)?
I did try searching, but the closest I found was someone looking for autograph "pads" which doesn't sound like what I want and also didn't get an answer.
Thanks,
-Melissa |

| ->> Try gotprint.com. I get 1000 4x6 on heavy 14 pt cardstock color on one side and black and white print on other side for postcards including shipping only runs about 55.00. They are even less per ea if you order more. You can order plain on one side or color on both. You can request a sample pack too |

->> No, not asking about pricing - figured that out.
Just seems like there is a more economical option for the prints as photo or postcard seem to be $0.30+ each at the 5x7 size. Wondering if that is what teams are spending on this sort of thing or if there is another option. The size preference may be part of the issue.
Most pro teams have this sort of thing on hand for fan appearances - is there a "normal" size for an item meant to be signed by a single person? is there a "name" for these items that should be used when getting a quote from a printer?
I'm asking to be helpful - should my price/image be accepted, I'll pass on the info - not looking to place the order myself with a markup in this case. |
