I remember you posting that cover image not so long ago sir

. Looks like some great images in there.

I've not handled them very much at all (only in passing once), but I've never liked the idea of them personally. That they might scratch and become a little messy over time, and the image behind look a little drab because of this.

I'd personally choose something more organic like the ones you mention. Not seen any tweed covers yet though

I remember the first time I saw and acrylic cover. It was before I got serious about photography and I was blown away.

At this point, I prefer a simple clean leather cover, but I have to think it has quite an impact on clients.

Acrylic covers are pretty, but they do not age as well as leather covers do. In 5 years the leather will look almost new while the acrylic will be marred with all manner of light scratches and other imperfections. There is also the issue of the print becoming separated from the back of the acrylic.

The reason I know these things is because I have an acrylic sample that is running up on 4 years old right now. I still offer them to clients, but only if they specifically ask for it. Otherwise I show and recommend leather albums.

I have never had an issue with acrylic covers. My samples date back over 7 years and have been handled by numerous potential clients and packed in a case with other albums for travel. They still look new in terms of no marks and the photos are holding up very well.

Acrylic is strong for normal handling. Don't put a knife to it (just as you wouldn't with leather) and it will last.

No complaints at all from me about them.
