[QUOTE="dreamer94, post: 197389, member: 6449"]I have a complete run of proof sets from 1954 through 2006 (and will get the 2007-2008 sets) and I'd like to put them into albums. Eagle makes proof set albums that accomodate the plastic proof set holders 4 to a page. I'm having a little trouble understanding their pricing. From the catalog listings I've seen, the binders seem to be ordinary 3-ring binders with brown colored covers. A complete set (5 albums; 1 flat pack and 4 plastic-case albums with a total of 23 pages) would cost $155-165 depending on the vendor. The 23 album pages could be purchased for about $91 ($3.95 each). This means the cost of 5 3-ring binders is $70-$80 ($14-$16 each). They would have to be very special binders to be worth that much. Does anyone know 1. Whether the binders are standard 3-hold size? 2. Do the binders have special features (like exterior labeling) that make them worth several times the cost of a standard 3-ring binder?[/QUOTE]
