Re: [ARSCLIST] Transcription sleeves, was Re: [ARSCLIST] Boxes for album sets



Hi everyone,
I contacted Disc-O-File a while ago and they said their sleeves are
"moderately acidic" (pH 4,59).
(but they do have nice discounts on bigger orders: 30% for 4000+ and 40%
for 10000+, mix and match sizes, plus shipping)

Gaylord's in Syracuse also carries 17" envelopes, alas, no hole...

and 3" boxes that room ca 20 transc.disks (on the expensive side...):

Looking for 16" sleeves myself.
Therefore interested in joining a group order provided the price is well
below 1 dollar a piece and with acid-free paper.

Tried Kurt Nauck's "Disc-O-File" sleeves yet?  Heavy brown envelopes with
label holes, no flap.  Don't know about acid content.  85 cents each.  I've
got a few and they're good for my purposes.  Go to http://www.78rpm.com/and
click on "Disc-O-File Sleeves" on the left.  I'm beatin' around the bush on
an intended order myself.
