Which way, or, how do you...?

I prefer vertical cards to horizontal cards. Which do you prefer? I have to admit some cards look nice horizontally, and some cards have to be horizontal for whatever it is trying to depict. But I do have a few favorite horizontal cards that could not really meaningful exist in any other orientation.  Here are two I like:

Relatively modern, both. The 1992 Topps Darryl Strawberry of course depicts him in a heinously wrong uniform, but at least it is at his old home ballpark, Shea Stadium. The 2010 Topps card for the Brewers Prince Fielder might actually be cropped too closely. Here is a video showing a different angle. And you can see there are a bunch more people involved.

But that is not what this blog post is about. This blog post is about asking you how do you store your horizontal cards in traditionally vertical pages? You can have two options"

This way:

Or, the other way:

I prefer the "This way". The "other way" feels wrong to me. Here is how it looks in my binder (the one example of Topps cards from each year:

I have a card showing every year from the 1951 red and blue backs up to 2025. Oh, actually, I do need an example of the 1956 Topps White back. I will find one later this year.

Some might orient their card(s), I suppose, depending on the orientation of the card back? Some horizontal cards have vertically reading backs but even if it meant having the card back be upside down, I'd still orient the front-facing horizontal to be facing the way of the top image.

Thanks for stopping by.
