These binders are perfect! I ordered a couple through work and they are light,

easy to open and well...just great! Thanks for sharing the link!

Nope, not very heavy. However, they are stiff in the spine where the front and

back are attached. You will probably want to have someone open, close and bend

the covers back and forth a bunch of times to " break it in " first. :-) I hope it

works for ya! I like mine.

Blessings,

Holly

Trapper Keepers on eBay do though, so if you look there, make sure it's one from

the '80s TKs.

se_10051## or in person at Wal-Mart. I like it better use-wise than my vintage

Trapper Keeper b/c it is more sturdy and less cutesy. But a girl's gotta love

her vintage butterflies too... ;-)
