I store my T210's in a binder using Ultra Pro Tobacco pages (15 pocket.)

All the raw cards go in sleeves in toploaders, just the regular sized ones. Then into a shoebox box.

Some more modern stuff goes the same way into a 4 row box, but they stopped making the ones that will hold the toploaders

All the graded stuff goes in here. There's more than when I took the picture, but it will be a long time before I fill it up.

(Rob D.) That, my friend, is a thing of beauty.

I've been trying to figure out the best way to store my newly acquired homemade vintage card collection. I have packs of standard sized penny sleeves and top loaders, but the tiny (1.25" x 2") cards just get lost in there. I'll have to search out these mini top loaders and the nice case.

Thanks for the photos (Rob D & Steve B) - very inspiring.

Mine are all just in tobacco sleeves (no top-loaders), stacked in a 1910-era soap box.

I glue mine into a vintage photo album. Two staples hold them in place while the glue dries.

Does anyone know where I can buy just the tobacco sleeves without the top loaders?


My storage:
T206: Stacked raw in groups of about 20ish in those 25 ct hard plastic two piece boxes, then those placed in a wooden box/small crate type thingy that used to hold cassette tapes I think. Graded cards are in a similar box sorta like an old cheese box that I picked up for a dollar or two in an antique store.

t205 hofers: laying flat in a flat-file type cabinet with 1"-2" deep drawers. Along with the other tobacco cards in my pre-war type collection.

t207's some in the flat file, others in an inexpensive dark wood box from an antique store.
