clear plastic covers?

Unread post by moo41 »

ive been using cardboard folders for my autographs and i just found it annoying and a bit bulky since i have so much crap in my room
so i was thinking about putting them in clear plastic covers... i have a bunch from who knows how long ago and to me they have the plastic smell to them which i heard shouldnt be used if they have that smell to them
i just went to walgreens to see if they had any archival quality and acid free ones, thats what i read you were suppose to get
but the 2 that they had over there didnt say anything about acid free or anything like that, therefore i didnt get them

can anybody tell me wheres a good place to get the covers?
i was thinking an office depot or something...
and do they have something when you buy the covers that says that their acid free?

Yeah on the Office Depot site, it says it's acid-free so you should get them there.

I always get mine at Staples. As long as they say acid free, archival quality there the ones to get.

You can get them at craft stores like AC Moore, Ragshop, and Michaels.

I got mine from Target in their $1 section. I got ten for $1. They are acid free. The protective covers I get don't stick to the pictures. You just slide the picture in and boom, complete :D . Anyway, hope yours work well for you!

Sam's Club....super cheap, huge quantity and acid free {up}! And you can pick what quantity you want! I bought the 200 per box and it lasts forever :lol:...but it costs just under $18...only 8.5 cents per protector...can't beat that {thumb2}!
