Hi everyone,


looking for advice again since there are so many smart people on this board.


I have a few booklets (TTT, Five Star) and am looking to display them "opened" in a magnetic.


Up until now I have stored them closed because I don't own any Ultra Pro or other custom holders. I have also wondered whether keeping them open in some way damages the spine of the booklet (you can imagine this if you think about reading a paperback book and the creases that can occur).


does anyone have any experience with booklets and displaying them opened for long periods of time? if so, have you noticed any wear / damage to the booklet spine? white creases?


looking forward to hearing everyone's opinion, thanks in advance!

TTT, Topps Sterling and Five Star booklets don't have "spines" that can be damaged. They have two creases and two folds so you display them in the Ultra-Pro's and feel safe!

I've been using the new booklet magnetic holders from ultra pro I think? They are a bit pricey but worth it. I've had books displayed now for over 6 months open and no issues with the "binding." The new issue is the Americas pastime sideways books, as far as I know there isn't a way to display them. And you have to get the largest top loaders for them to ship.
