How do you store 6x7 negative?

I wonder why nobody ever made sheets with slots running vertically rather than horizontally. You could easily fit in 3 strips of 4 on an A4 page, it would work for 6x7 too, and for those doing 6x7 portraits or using Hasselblads it gives a more natural orientation of the negative.

Well those are quite small. If the picture is anything to go by, it looks like they're less than 10 inches high. Is this small 3-ring format some kind of standard for archival storage of negatives?

The ones I use here are Adofiles, the size of standard four-hole sleeves for A4 paper, maybe slightly larger but they still easily fit in a Leitz ring binder (the type which is the standard in offices in Germany since ca. 1893). A4 is 210x297mm, the four holes are spaced 80mm apart as usual. For 35mm, those sheets hold 7 strips of 6. For 6x6 and 6x9 they hold four strips (of three and two respectively). For 6x7, you could fit three vertical strips of four.
