Storing Autographed Album Covers

I have a pretty hefty collection of autographed album covers, way too many to frame and hang on the wall. Up until now I have been storing the unframed albums in sleeves and putting them in a box. I was wondering if anyone knew of a product like a binder that holds and protects album covers so you can store them and still have a way to display them if you flip through the book. My google searches have turned up very little, but I thought maybe someone out there knew of a product that would work for this purpose. Thanks!

I'll guess that bags unlimited has the best assortment of protective items, including this storage box https://www.bagsunlimited.com/p-2648-33-13-rpm-lp-record-carrying-c...

Not sure if the item you're describing exists, as it might not be too practical (i.e. bulky) given the size and weight of vinyl sleeves. Itoya of course makes some great binders, but mostly geared toward photos and posters.

You would most likely have to make your own folder. I stick my albums in plastic and store them upright with the other albums so the vinyl doesn't warp.

I'm pretty sure this is a given for you all, but just in case - don't forget to remove the vinyl from the album covers when you store them, and either put them outside the album cover in the same protective sleeve or in a separate sleeve, this protects you album cover from the dreaded ring wear.
