Look at the bottom photo, the last binder on the shelf.

If by foreign you mean X-FILES CONTACT, yes. I think the first binder has the first 3 seasons and Contact in it, the cover and spine has wrinkled, and it is overloaded.

I sure wish I knew what caused the wrinkling though. Some near empty binders have done the same thing.

Duh! I thought you were talking about the cards and, since its Olivia, I was starting to get worried. One of my slow witted days. Wink

You have to be very careful with ring binders, especially the inkworks ones as the ring can lay on the cards causing an indent in them over the very long term.
The rittenhouse binders are much better as they are half round half square so the pages sit much better in the binder.
With the full round rings especially the inkworks ones the cards can get trapped between the ring and the binder face causing the indent over the long term.

Seen the ring indents in Andromeda and Angel cards bought from others.

`D' ring binders are the only kind you should use. Unfortunately some of the older binders just used the standard `O' ring. For a little added protection if I have an `O' ring binder I put one of those plastic protectors that you put on top of the first page. No idea what they are called but some of the better binders come with them.

No, apologies I meant foreign language as in Topps 1st series, see below:-

An English Version, a Spanish version and two Italian versions. Of the Spanish and Italian cards I collected them some years back. I don't have meany of the Italian variants though.

No, I do not have any of those.
I did not even know they existed.
Very nice!
