What I do is buy two pieces of archival safe backer board to sandwich the art in between, with a layer of archival safe tissue paper-like material between each piece.

I would highly suggest this method; keeping your prints rolled is not good for them in the long run. Just a suggestion though

Edit:

Added info by request...

Here is some backer board you might consider: http://www.dickblick.com/products/el...kTracking=true

Here is a portfolio that will hold everything together and keep light and dust off your art: http://www.dickblick.com/products/ec...kTracking=true

and you can go with this between your prints: http://www.dickblick.com/products/li...kTracking=true
or you may prefer this: http://www.dickblick.com/products/st...kTracking=true
or this (bulk roll): http://www.dickblick.com/products/gl...kTracking=true

Hope this helps!
Thanks for that guys, there's a couple of art shops in town so I'll go and check them out and see what they got.
