These pockets are not clear..the bottom has a logo in black ink. I used it to hold music and this logo interferes with the written music. I think whoever designed this wasn't thinking clearly. Why does Staples need to ruin this product by putting their logo on it?
I started using binder pockets to organize family history research. I also use them to carry a small amount of papers to meetings and by adding a self-stick label I use them to hold loose papers for various projects.
