I do not remember these folders. Looks kind of familiar though. Thanks for sharing.

I myself haven't seen one since about 1980. But I am sure they still exist. ... Maybe. lol

I got curious and yes, they still make them, but apparently they have been Cheapified like everything else and the reviews seem to be screaming for the Original. https://www.mead.com/p/folders/pocket-folders/mead-pee-chee-2-pocket-paper-folder-assorted-designs/#

It is weird how some products that were once literally Everywhere, seem to have vanished, but in reality they are still being made. Sometimes it has to do with geographical distribution or company cutbacks or some other reason that they are suddenly lo longer seen in stores.

It reminds me of the Rocky Road candy bar with the red foil wrapper I used to see everywhere on the west coast as a kid in the 70's, which seemed to disappear. Then in the early 1990's I was getting gas in Central Iowa and sitting on the counter was a big bowl filled with, .... Rocky Road candy bars and I was shocked to see them. Thank, you, I'll take two, ... No, Three !! lol
