How to choose
- 9 pockets per page: the most common size; a page shows 9 cards side by side.
- 4 pockets per page: smaller, handy for a small collection or to carry around.
- 12 pockets per page: larger, to keep many cards in one binder.
- Side loading: the card goes in from the side, so it is less likely to slide out.
- Zip closure: a closed binder keeps dust and knocks away from the cards.
