Need replacement slide material for old albums

Does anyone know where I can get plastic sheets to make replacement slides for some vintage albums? Even if there are just different size slides that can be cut to fit my needs. Any suggestions will help,

    Good question...I ran into this a few weeks ago and was wondering the same thing....

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I actually needed some Littleton slides for an album I recently bought and contacted them directly. They sent me the slides for free. I'm not sure if that's normal policy, though.
  • I have a number of Wayte Raymond boards that have warped slides. The boards are like new never used.

    You could purchase the clear pages that are made for ring binders at an office supply store such as Staples, and cut the windows to size with a straight edge and utility knife....

    You could also check for the overhead projection sheets and use your old slides as templates, should be a little stiffer don't know if they are pvc free but you can check the label, office supply store will have these also...

    I've got quite a few used albums that could be harvested if you give me the height dimension of the slides. PM me.

    this is a best fix IMHO, the sheets for notebooks are too thin
