I just wanted to note there is a second type of top loading full page sheet protector available.

The page size protector can offer advantages if not all pages are in protectors or want to use standard page dividers since the page protector is only slightly wider than the actual page.

I do not keep all my pages in protectors and use them selective and this blends in better.

One downside is that the pages are more difficult to insert since you have to get the page protector binder holes to line up the inserted page. It also comes in fewer options in thickness and accommodation room for thicker/bulky ages.

The brand shown is Avery. I prefer clear type or anti-glare but the mood changes.

I usually use 3.3 mil heavy weight protectors. For example, I will keep mini-sheets or even bulk stamps in them.

I have all sorts (thin to thick) that I have kept from purchased collections and the vast major have help up well. I have never seen any damage to stamps but not saying it is not possible.

Nor I, (10 years and counting) the thin polypropylene, does not worry me, but the thicker clear glass do, I am keeping a beady on them.

The sheet protectors work great for any sheets 1/3 of a page size or bigger. (US Greetings from America and Star Wars sets).
