TOPLOADERS: WHICH ARE BEST FOR YOUR SPORTS CARDS?24/4/2023
TOPLOADERS: WHICH ARE BEST FOR YOUR SPORTS CARDS? Where there are baseball cards, there are toploaders (or “top loaders” if you need some space).It’s sort of like boys and dogs, or football and tailgates, or Mondays and coffee.Get more news about toploader holder manufacturer,you can vist our website! While you technically could collect baseball cards without ever using or maybe even encountering a toploader, your hobby experience will be much enhanced by the presence of toploaders, at least in most cases (pun intended).Your cards will be safer, they’ll be easier to move around, and they’ll even look better. But which are the best toploaders? As with many questions, especially ones that involve a degree of subjectivity, the answer to that one depends on several factors. We’ll cover all of those in the space below so that you can choose the best toploaders for you and your cards, but first, let’s dig in to some basics. Along the way, I’ll include links to Amazon listings (affiliate link) for the types of toploaders being discussed, and we’ll talk a bit more pointedly about where you can buy these to fit your needs toward the bottom of this post. WHAT ARE TOPLOADERS? When it comes to sports cards, toploaders are rigid card holders that are enclosed on three sides, leaving the top edge open for inserting a card. Hence the name: “toploaders.” Generally speaking, a toploader card holder consists of two sheets of clear PVC attached to each other by narrow strips of spacer plastic along the two side edges and the bottom edge. Those spacer strips produce an air gap between the top and bottom sheets, creating room to slide the card in through the top. HOW BIG ARE TOPLOADERS? When considering which size toploader you need, it’s important to consider two different components: traditional card dimensions like height and width, and card thickness from front to back. That second component may seem a bit foreign to veteran collectors. After all, in the old days of the hobby, before the advent of premium cards in the 1990s or so, pretty much all cards were basically just hunks of cardboard, with more or less the same thickness. Today, though, cards range from that same traditional consistency, to thicker chrome cards, to even thicker memorabilia cards, to deep-dish numbers like rookie auto patch cards. If you try to jam one of those super thick cards into a toploader made in the 1980s, you’ll skin it alive. Similarly, if you dump a 1985 Topps card into a toploader meant for one of today’s super-duper-specials, it’ll rattle around like a lonely coherent thought in my head. Luckily, today’s baseball card supply manufacturers have kept up with the times, and with the modern card market. As such, toploaders come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes.
