I have also used manila stock pages extensively in the past.

I would never do so now. Vario stock pages are cheaper when bought in quantity, and are safe. I suspect that a stockbook would also be cheaper (or about the same price)...

How many Manila's does it take to make one page?

That depends, wild, free range domestic, farmed or organic farmed? As you may not know there is a sizing difference.

If you take the exact same stamps and sell them on manila pages and on Vario pages you will get much more for the stamps on Vario. I spend lots of time transferring stamps from manila to Vario just to get good prices. People like to see the whole stamp.

Speaking as a buyer, I dislike the look of stamps in manila pages. As Ken says, being able to see the full stamp (as in Vario pages) makes all the difference to me.

I don't use them for display or collection, only for sorting ... get 12 extra hands or more.

I, too, find them to be handy tools to have. I break out the nice china when guests are around, though.

Does anyone have photos, a description or make/model number from the mysterious manila stock page making machine?

I was thinking about writing an article about various stock pages/books and their manufacture, materials used, etc., but cursory searches aren't yielding much. This would be a follow up to an article on mounts/hinges that I am currently working on.

I have not yet contacted Subway.
