Best way to store 1933 Goudeys
I would like to know the best way to store ungraded 1933 Goudeys. Which do you prefer, Top Loaders, binder and pages, screw downs? Any advice would be appreciated.
|
I used to have them in top loaders.
Then, about a dozen years ago, I moved them into 9 pocket sheets in a ring binder. A year ago I sold about half of mine. What I have left is in a stack unto themselves, in a small box, in a safety deposit box. No loaders, no sleeves, just a simple stack of cards. |
I've always used top loaders for my Goudeys.

I just put mine in binders with 9 pocket sheets. Great way to look at them when you want to. I have heard some horror stories about screw-downs but have never used them so can't really support those stories.
Just make sure you are able to enjoy them! RC |

Or so I've heard. Again I've never used one. |
I store my set in penny sleeves (do these still cost a penny?), in a standard 9-pocket page, in a binder. About a dozen have been graded. I keep those in the same binder, in 4-pocket pages in the front of the binder.
As an alternative, if you want more protection, those same 4-pocket pages can hold the cards when they are in either a top loader or a semi-rigid holder. |
If you opt not to go the binder route, I've always been a proponent of Card Saver II's. The card presents much better than it does in a top loader and it doesn't bounce around the way some cards do in top loaders.
|
I've never had a problem with screwdowns, but I always put the card in a sleeve first and I never tightened it down any more than it needed to hold the card in place.
|
I used to keep them in 9 pocket sheets because I like flipping though sets that way. Sold my set a few years ago. :(
|
4 pocket sheets?
does the 4 pocket sheets hold the Card Saver 1's or Card Saver 2's?

I have my '33 Goudeys in an MJ Roop (RIP, miss you guys) binder. Cards are in penny sleeves for protection and to keep them from wanting to fall out. Probably a third of the cards were purchased graded but were cracked out to fill out the pukas. I kept the flips for whatever that was worth. Some of the high-end guys (Lajoie, the Ruths etc) I left slabbed and put a reprint in its place for appearance's sake. Can't beat this set-up for a casual perusal of one of the classic sets.
