Notes

Reproduction paper sleeves for ADAM 5.25-inch disks, in three versions, made by Pboland and distributed through the AtariAge forums.

A 5.25-inch disk is exposed magnetic media in a flexible jacket. The paper sleeve is the only thing between the surface and whatever it is stored against.
Original sleeves are forty years old, and paper that has absorbed decades of dust and damp is doing the opposite of protecting the disk.

So replacing them is preservation rather than presentation - which is not true of most reproduction packaging.
