There was a question awhile back from someone, sorry don't
remember who since I lost a bunch of my mail recently.

I keep 'em everywhere! Seriously, a few good answers were given
here but I had a sort of different problem awhile back. I had
taken some 3-D wedding pictures and was grappling of how to give
the couple the 75 stereo cards, without it being expensive but 
also not looking cheap. I looked around till I settled on black
plastic video-cases.

I cut out the tabs (inside the video-case) that keep the video
in place and it fits 25 stereo-cards (depending on the thickness)
per case. I therefore gave them 3 volumes with a plastic lorgnette
in each one.

Of course this is not ideal if you have a couple of hundred (or
thousand) views but is an idea when giving cards to others and
wondering how to present them.
