Screw down holder for Old Judge card question
 
Does anyone use one screw screwdown holders for their old judge cards? If so, how do they work. Do they hold the card secure, or do they slide around too much. Would you recomend it? I only have one ungraded old judge card but wanted to put it in something like that

Many Old Judge cards have a curvature to them. I wouldn't put one of them in a screw down. If yours is perfectly flat, it might work out.

Do NOT use a screw down holder. Nothing good will come from it. Leave the natural curve in the card. If you do use it, put the card in a penny sleeve first made from mylar. Ink on cards have been known to stick on plastic screwdown holders as well.

I agree - please do not put them in screw down holders!!! the photo is sensitive enough and would be too much on the photo surface.

Never use screw down holders on ANY card..

I have one in a screwdown, but it's one made for very thick modern cards.

The OJ is a bit loose, so there's no pressure on it. I'll eventually use some acid free matboard to make a piece to keep it from moving around.

I wouldn't clamp one in anything, One of the others I have cracked from being in a binder and having pressure on it.

I have one in a Beckett holder that shows creasing from being flattened.

screw-downs for cards should be outlawed. :)

Listen to Paul.

I've never held a raw OJ card, so forgive my cluelessness here.

If putting them into a screwdown is not recommended, then what about the encapsulation process by PSA/SGC? Could that also cause potential damage or be a bad thing?

What about keeping raw OJ cards in CardSavers? Good or bad?
