Storing and enjoying cards in binders

Yes, I have a 65T set in a 9-pocket 3-ring binder and the top left corners of the top left cards are starting to curl. They've been in the binder probably 20-25 years.

I would guess that since they have been there for that long that your pages are the old style.... Thick sticky plastic and not newer Ultra pages? All of mine are in the newer Ultra pages.

I found a 1989 Hoops Basketball set in my garage that was in the old sticky plastic pages and they are awful. They were vending the cards.

They are mostly Ultra Pro Platinum but with BCW Pro mixed in.

Love the '65 set, with 15 HOF'ers (so far?) on the first page alone!!!
