I mounted about eight slides Sunday in the
80x140 plastic mounts and another four or
five in 80x132 cardboard mounts. Following
Dave's suggestion, I started mounting on the
smooth half of the plastic mount and it has
worked great!

I only reached for my cardboard mounts when
I really wanted a different aperture shape.

Given the price at which George is offering
us plastic mounts, I'm not sure I'd jump to
buy 80x140 cardboard mounts (if they were offered).
