Looking For Recommendation

[Poetman]

I frequently speak in public from handwritten notes and am looking for some sort of professional leather like cover to cover the notes, so it doesn't look like I'm holding a pile of losse paper. When I used legal pads, I would place a pad in a leather folder, and the pad was both secure and covered. With loose sheets, achieving these two goals are proving difficult. Could anyone offer any suggestions?

 

Thanks

How about this?

I need something for standard 8.5x11 paper that will replace, and allow me to do the same kind of thing as, this:

You could staple the loose sheets together and put them in something like this:

I saw this before but was trying to avoid the unsightly clip at the top. But now that you're suggesting it, I am wondering if something like that might be my only option, considering I am dealing with loose papers.

Another possibility that comes to mind, if you're willing to invest a little (or a lot) more money, is Staples's Arc System or Levenger's Circa System. A nice leather or poly cover, a punch (Levenger's 1-2-3 punch is a good buy), and you're good to go. I use both (they're interchangeable), and love their flexibility.

It looks like you need such a file by Filofax:

or smth like it.

A Tachenbegleiter has clips that can secure loose paper. They come in A4 and A5 sizes and can be configured to hold a pad (in A4 or A5 sizes).

looks like this works only with notebooks or legal pads. I need something to secure loose sheets of paper.

Thanks for the link. I'm looking for something more streamlined.

 

Like a faux leather version of this, but where the metal would clip the paper rather than need to puncture it.

Just got one of these:

I use the large size. I added a standard 8x11 envelope system I bought at Office Depot for putting my loose notes in when I speak. It also works with 8x11 spiral bound notebook as well.

I have the A5 size and it will hold loose sheets of A4 paper and everything smaller like A5. I also sometime clip in receipts and travel documents.

It is up to you but imho if you use good paper the "previous" page will do its best to close the "current" one.

My children are now at college and use 3 x 5 inch index cards for revision they wanted something to hold these cards and yet allow them to be moved around as required.

Tis is a prototype and will need to be wrapped in a suitable leather I don't know if they are available commercially but I think it would meet your needs.

Thanks, but I need a professional looking cover to conceal 8.5X11 loose leaf papers.
