Yup. Much better price, but those are oversized and with flaps. I want plain 
paper sleeves, with a hole. If I have two thousand transcriptions that need 
sleeves, you can be sure that I'm not going to spend weeks cleaning them, I 
just want them covered. Even newspaper does a good job..I have a bunch that I 
bought from Tom at Royal Garden Records in Cleveland years ago and we wrapped 
them in paper at the time and they've held up perfectly.
