Question:

Where to buy protective plastic covers for full stamp sheets?

I've been given the responsibility by a family member to take care of 500-600 full stamp sheets from the 60's 70's. They are currently stored kind of haphazardly in large envelopes that, surprisingly, has kept them in really nice condition. But at this time I'd like to take the time to store them properly for preservation and presentation. Such beautiful stamps should not be kept in hiding. So the question is, where to buy reasonably priced, but archival quality sheet protectors for stamp sheets? One thing I do know is they cannot be a vinyl based product. Thanks!

Answer:

I would try a store that provides scrabook supplies. All of that is achival. There are several sizes of page protectors available.
I don't know exactly WHERE to purchase them.....I 'googled' and found a supplier that I like. but the TYPE of envelopes that I use are called glassine. They are great for storage.....but are slightly opaque so may not be the best for presentation. Ask at your post office, its where I first asked. Good luck and hopefully I'll get an education from other answers here on this too :)
