Do you collect manuals for the Cases?

[Einhander]

One cool thing that is missing in the cases we make are manuals. Only issue is they can fall out easily.
Any solutions you have for that?

The UGC cases don't have a good way to hold manuals, but if you check the 'New NES cases (work in progress)'- http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=17027.msg158458;topicseen#new thread those cases will come with a manual clip. Other than that the best option for holding manuals is in plastic sleeves in a binder like this (I don't like sticking them in the NES dust sleeves because it doesn't protect them as well, it requires multiple dust sleeves for a large collection of manuals, and it looks like junk to store them like that):



If you already have UGC cases you can stick manuals in one that has the tabs cut out. For SNES, you can fit 8-12 manuals in there, depending on thickness. For NES, I used the inside sleeves from a small photo book I found at Walmart for $3. I glued the sleeve to the spine and it worked pretty well. This holder would probably be able to accommodate over a dozen manuals.

I had a similar problem; i like collecting manuals but UGCs just didn't properly hold the SNES ones.  After some TCP member surveying; i decided to make a binder for the manuals.  Here is the thread where I got some good ideas (maybe it'll help ya' out).

This is what my binders ended up looking like (separated according to NES and SNES/N64 of course!)

Like previous posters; I'd love to, but the UGC's aren't optimalized for it and the shipping for UGC's and all other casing options to where I live is pretty dreadful.

What dimensions are these sleeves? Is there a general dimension for manuals from these consoles?

From what it looks like to me they are just standard photo sleeves.

Thank you Palmer.

Go through the old thread I posted above; I had to purchase the NES ones from Europe because the U.S. sizes didn't work.  There are links on the thread to the ones that I bought.
