Card Care Collection

[HoosierBuddy]

So, years ago when I started collecting, we used penny sleeves and top loaders to take care of our cards. Or pages and binders (old school, lol). Then it was screw-downs (four screws in four corners) and then Single Screwdown holders. Then it was said that cards would stick to the single screw holders (and, as I just removed a couple of cards from single screws after about, oh, 14 years, they did, although not very badly).

And so it was the Magnetic One-Touch holders, which I've seen some breakers on Youtube use for bigger hits. But I've also read that those one-touches are bad for autos, particularly Chrome cards, and that ... you guessed it, penny sleeves and top loaders were the best thing to use.

Now, I've got my entire Mike Schmidt Auto/Relic collection in Single Screws. But I don't want to go to the expense of buying a crap ton of mags, only to learn that they shouldn't be used to store my autos/relics either.

And so, I turn to you, my dear Sports-Card-Forumians. What is the best way to protect your cards, especially Autos and Relics, as those are what I need to protect the most.

I personally like top loader and peenysleeves but that just me. Best of luck in whatever you decide to do. I would say if your truly worried about protecting your higher end cards grading might be a option but it not cheap. Of course your cards are protected the best imo.
