The "Cadillac" trading card holder of the Pro-Mold Line of
card holders. It features arrowhead recessed corners that keep the card's
corners from getting touched and damaged. This trading card holder is basically an oversized regular Pro-Mold
One Screw Screwdown (about twice as thick).
Strengths: Ideal for storage of those "Big Money" Cards. This is
an absolutely gorgeous trading card holder that really makes the trading card stand out. This
particular holder is small and compact compared to traditional style
four screw screwdowns which allows for storage of
many in smaller spaces particularly in monster boxes or shoe boxes. What made
the one screw screwdown popular is the fact that you get all the benefits of a
four screw, as far as protection of the trading card goes, but with only having to use
one screw instead of four.
Weaknesses: Expensive. Ideally suited for trading cards that are worth more
then $50. A cheaper solution is the 1/4" thick one screw
screwdowns. Some collector's prefer not to deal with screwdown holders
because it's time consuming and tedious to screw together many at a time, which
is why they use the
snap-design holders or our new line of
magnetic card holders instead.
2. What is this holder made out of? PVC? Answer:
This trading card holder as well as all our other card holders are
made out of polystyrene. Polystyrene is an archival safe raw material and
it contains no hazardous chemicals, PVC or plasticizers.
3. Why should I buy the Pro-Mold One Screw Screwdown instead of
the competitors? Answer: The Pro-Mold One Screw Screwdown is made in America with high quality
raw materials from leading American polymer (plastic) manufactures. Many of
the imported mini-snaps are made from a low grade material using a lot of
regrind which give their parts a blue tint and less optical clarity.
4. Will Pro-Mold be coming out with a "Super Thick"
card holder for the new Upper Deck Sweet Spot cards? Answer: Yes. See
this page: Premium Super Thick Card Screwdown
5. Will this holder protect the trading card from
damaging UV Rays? Answer: No it will not so we recommend that you do
not store these where they are constantly exposed to light.
