One more bounce and the card would have been creased or torn in two. Luckily no damage but I am through with screwdowns I think. I've been thinking of grading my E107s and that seems to be wise now just for protection. Not like I'm going to fill an album full of them anyway.

I usually don't become violent with my collection but, ................

for cards that I enjoy dropping or throwing, I prefer the Beckett holder.

Be thirsty, my friend.

That's the problem with single-screw screwdowns. Four-screw screwdowns are second only to Beckett as weapons in some parts of the world.

I've had very good luck with this company's 4-screw holders:

Edited to add, that they apparently also carry the Pro-mold products. But I've always just used their own (BCW) models. No sliding issues.
