If anyone has a Wilkinson's nearby (know that they are in the North of the UK, not sure about the South) then they do these cool little 7x5 photo albums with 36 pockets for £1.25 each. (A few spare pockets for bonus cards, Sente's thank you postcards etc). One per colour works out at a nice round tenner.

Well you can use one per colour , or do what I did:

1-2 5-6 9-10 etc in one book (e.g. Red and Orange)

and

3-4 7-8 11-12 etc in the next (the same two colours)

Then you can look at four in a set together by opening the two books one above the other.

Hope this makes sense.

Gotta love the metric system; and the general lack of acceptance it has had in North America.

I looked into buying some 4x6 inch photo pages, which just fit a card due to tolerances, and a binder big enough to hold it (most here are shorter than an A4), and I was going to end up spending more than $30.
Instead I ordered one from Firebox, and hey, I get a pack of of cards to boot!

As for my Leitmarks, I'm planning on making up a full page display layout that I can pin them to and add it to the binder. Now I just have to trim an 8 1/2 x 14 to 8 1/4 x 11 2/3.

I had a bunch of 8.5x11" sheet protectors left over from an earlier project, and they seem to work pretty well. I can put four cards in each, but an inch or so hangs out the top. Put them all in a spare 1.5" thick binder I also had.

Not the snazziest setup, but it works. Plus I like being able to have each set of four related cards in one place where you can see the front and back all at once.

I can't remember how much sheet protectors are, but if you buy a box of them it isn't too bad.
