Does anyone have any good ideas to display and/or protect antique holy cards?

I would love to keep them in a book so they could be looked through but I don't want to mount them directly on the paper. Is there something made for this---oh and it should be archival quality, right?

I know someone on 4Real will have the perfect solution.....

photo sleeves.. the ones that are clear through so that you only put one in each pocket and you can see the front and back of the card.

This thread has ideas for holy cards - some wouldn't apply as they aren't all display/protection ideas, but there are some.

what do you do with your holy cards?
