Can anyone tell me where I might find individual stamp storage pages similar to those you find in stock books?

Search for "stamp stock book pages"?
If that's not what you want, then you'll need to be a bit more specific. |

I did that. Search returns were for the expensive vinyl sleeved pages such as the Vario brand offered by Lighthouse publications. Tried various wordings of the search and received the same results. I know complete stock books are available, but when you have a large quantity to store bigger books with 64 pages get a little unwieldy and expensive. |

I agree that those kinds of stock books and pages are expensive. That's why I keep almost all my loose stamps in glassines. I have many many thousands of glassines holding many 10s of thousands of stamps. I do have stock books, but I use them for items that don't fit in #4 glassines or for very specific countries.
Are you looking for manila pages? |

I wanted to stay away from glassines but it looks like I'm going to be headed that way. |

"WHEN YOU HAVE A LARGE QUANITY TO STORE .... " I have over 500,000 stamps in 3 ring binders with both manila pages and black stock pages , both in three ring binders . They sell for $1.00 each to $1.50 each now . Is that what your looking for ? Sometimes you can find them used for 50 cents each ,clean and very useable . |

I have some loose stamps that will not be sorted for a while in protective sleeve...essentially like a large glassine. This is especially for stamps that need to be soaked,
Varios now run 80 cents from my usual supplier. They can be considered an investment since they last and repurposed.
I did get a few glassine style stock books used (most with a little writing). I avoid manila.

Agree with ANGORE , there are some manila stock pages that are made overseas of low quality . They are the one's to stay away from,they leak or leech a chemical that dulls the white color on the back of a stamp and you can see that where stamp has been on the page . I just checked my manila stock sheets in a binder that has sat for 40 years on a bookcase ,they are fine .no imprint of the stamps on the manila page .
As always buy quality and check your collection for any sign of problems . |
