Can someone tell me why holders are so large for notes that have been graded?
Very simply put 75% note 25% Advertising ;D

In a way that makes sense....Anytime you see a TPG note you see who graded it before you see the notes itself...
In someways that can be a good thing....or NOT!

I guess that when new TPG companies are established they naturally tend to use holders of the same size as those being used by the other companies. TPG holders could certainly be smaller than they are but it's probably too late to change now. The downside of TPG holders is that they use up huge amounts of space in display cases at shows and they're heavy to lug around in bulk.

There's also the matter of "one size fits all" so that you can save costs by only manufacturing a single size of holder and it can accommodate anything from shinplasters to large-size Dominion and chartered notes.

That's an idea I would support wholeheartedly. When you think about it in detail it's the logical way to go.
