Varios and Vario-like substances

I have always keep my traditional-sized (i.e., 50-stamp panes) US "mint sheets" in SuperSafe Mint Sheet Albums. Since I like to collect tagging EFOs, the SuperSafe album pages have the advantage of being transparent to 254nm UV light, so I can see the tagging without having to remove any stamps.

One thing you might not like if you are used to using Varios -- the SuperSafe mint sheet album pages are "soft", not "stiff" like Varios. Which means after standing up for a long time, the pages might tilt and "curl" at the bottom outside corners -- keep the album full to minimize this problem. Also, they are only sealed on inside/bottom edges, but that makes inserting/removing easier. Unlike Varios, where you have to insert the stamp to the very bottom of the row, the soft clear film clings to the soft black PolyPro film so you can actually center your pane on the album page if you want.

Hello khj - uh, I forgot about this thread. I ended up getting a 12" x 12" album from some outfit called We R Memory Keepers. They cater to scrapbookers. angore told me about them on another thread (which I probably started in addition to this one but also seem to have lost because I am losing my mind, so why not lose everything else?). The pages aren't as transparent as Varios, but they'll do and the album seems like it's of good quality - probably made to hold heavier things than mint sheets, e.g. scorecards from Yankee games, graduation paraphernalia, fireworks wrappers.... And even at 12" and change in depth, it fits on the shelf I wanted it to fit on.
