If you are talking about ordinary sheet protectors, I don't think it's a good idea. They are very thin and flimsy and offer absolutely no protection against creasing. I do use them to carry 8x10s in a notebook for IP autographs with a cardboard backing inserted to protect the photos from creasing. But once they are signed I put them in toploaders when I get home.

If you are talking about the Ultra-Pro brand (or simular brands made specifically for photos), they are a bit thicker and offer some protection against creasing but are not as good as a toploader. I do store some photos in these kinds of pocket pages, but only photos smaller than 8x10 and if I'm not too concerned about the safety of the photo.

Can I store my autographs in ordinary punched plastic pockets, as well?

Cheers

According to the manufacturer, they won't harm your photos. I personally don't like BCW products, they just don't have the quality that Ultra-Pro has.

One thing, though. Once I put an autographed photo in the top loader, I never take it out.

it probably won't hurt them at all, but the ultra pro are better off.

will the ones I have hurt the autograph?
any help please?

I like Ultra-Pro better. It is acid free and contains no PVC.

Hey, I have a question about storing my autograph 8x10s. I just received my first 2 autographs back through the mail and
I am really excited about it. I have the following 8x10 top loaders to store them in. The link below shows the product I have.
They seem to be good, any opinions.
