I apologize if this has been posted (I didn't see anything via the search) but could someone recommend to me plastic sleeves that would be suitable for TSR standard box sets? (D&D, SF, GW, etc., possibly other sleeves for larger box sets like Battle System) I've seen them on some box sets I've acquired so I know they're out there! I've tried inputting some terms into google but I'm not finding what I'm looking for.

Here's a thread that might help:

Book Size Bags (10x13 i think) will fit some of the slimmer boxed sets (like some of the FGU and Chaosium Products)

Treasury or Life Size Bags will fit most other boxed sets except for the really tall Avalon Hill types

There are also Newspaper(flat,unfolded I think) and/or art print size bags that will fit boardgames and odd sized games

Thanks for the feedback guys.

The few box sets that came with bags were 15.75" x 11.25", which seems to be the dimensions for Life magazine. I'll check those out.
