It's nearly been six years since I last posted on plastic bags for storing paperbacks. I thought I would revisit the topic and update on where you can obtain these bags.
Action Bags / Action Packaging of Woodstock, Illinois, continues to sell plastic bags in a variety of sizes and styles. In my experience, their SKU: E6B5.75x8.625 (pictured above) is ideal for almost all mass market paperbacks, including thicker (i.e., 500+ pp) paperbacks. This size can be purchased in lots of 100, 500, 1,000, and even 2,000.
For thinner (i.e., up to about 225 pp) mass market paperbacks, BCW 5 x 7 3/8 inch bags continue to be available at amazon. With these you have to tape the edge (they aren't self-sealing).
So, you have some good, affordable options for protecting those precious paperbacks !
