Can't imagine why this hasn't been addressed already, unless it's because all other 78-L members really have defected over to the splinter groups on Facebook, so here is my answer.
Many years ago I heard it said by older collectors that plastic lined sleeves "might" promote the incubation of mold on shellac records. So I have shied away from using them. That said, a few months ago I found an album of classical 78s that I did use them on probably 45+ years ago and forgot about it. They look fine. War time Columbia s, if that makes a difference to anybody.
