Or do I need to go bigger? ------------------------------- There's no intrinsic value in cardboard, but there's a lot of value in doing something you enjoy!

You are talking about Upper Deck Icons, right?! If the 2008's are the same thickness as the 2009's, then YES - a 130pt. holder is the right size for an Immortal Letterman card.

I don't have a lot of MEM cards but I'm accumulating more of them, looks like I have 20 listed here. To date I've left them in what I've received them in or something like a team bag. I'm wanting to go the magnetic holder look but but not sure which ones to buy. Is there a "standard size" that works for most cards? Has anyone come across some type of listing that lists type of cards that fall into a certain pt size? I feel like I need to by some type of measuring device lol

As the thickness of cards grow, so do the holders. You really need to know how thick a card is OR how thick of a card a specific case can hold. The Immortal Lettermen MEM cards discussed here measure 0.4 of a CM OR just over 1/8th of an inch thick. That is basically the thickness of 6 regular Topps base cards. A 130 pt. case holds these cards with little room to move around inside the case.

If your card isn't 1/8th of an inch thick (front edge to back edge), you want a smaller size of magnetic one-touch case (100pt. or less). If your card is much larger (maybe 3/8th's of an inch thick), you'll want to go with a 180pt. case. I hope this helps you some.
