Need help with storage options on these two beauties i cam accross
 
I cant seem to upload the second one but it is Willie Mays.

I have a fair bit of them and they dont seem to fit anything regular to store.

Any ideas or where to look would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

Okay here it is the willie Mays, the conditions are what amazed me as the other vantage cards i came across in my find didnt have the sharp corners that these have. I realize that they dont have that much value but these cards have been saved from when my uncle collected cards as a kid and they were found when clearing out his place after he recently passed as he had quite a few cards that he preserved quite well in envelopes from back in the day, thanks in advance for any assistance

Huh?! What's wrong with Ultra Pro two pocket sheets?

P.S.: Please reduce the size of your Mickey Mantle picture and post it vertically. It's messing up the formatting of this page.

Sorry about the large picture posting, still getting the hang of posting pictures. I will make sure i adjust them like the mays for the next time i share card photos, my apologies again and thanks for the tip and etiquette for this site as its a great site to learn from.

Removed the attachment re the mantle card, as i am sorry for any inconvenience caused for the error on my part, still getting the hang of posting pictures, i will try and make them smaller going forward

A regular card shop should carry two pocket sheets.

Great cards to find in that condition though! I wish I could be that lucky.

Pretty sure there’s a fatty toploader that is the right size for you, if you want to display or store them that way instead.

well yeah those ones were the best condition, i had found that he had 12 cards from 1957 Topps but the crazy thing was that the centering on those was well iffy at best, take a look and let me know what you think ?

If you want something similar to what the 57’ Topps are currently in then you might like Card Saver IV (4). CS4 is the larger post card sized semi-rigid.

Regarding the Mays card, I have my 1964 Topps Giants in a 4 pocket sheet and it works great. A card would also fit in a 4 x 6 top loader.

Mine also; the 4 pocket sheets work great for these cards. Bonus - they hold them vertically for viewing.
