Help needed to find old fashioned photo=corners

Options
Does anyone know where I can buy the old style photo-corners? The type I am searching for are the paper/card ones, most often black, of the 'lick and stick' variety. All the shops I go into no longer supply them, mostly have only the nasty little vinyl see-thru ones.
I have all the pictures of our fabulous holiday in Barbados and a rather special album- with black pages and interleaved with tracing paper- but can't get the nice OF corners.
I Googled photo corners and came up with three companies Stateside and one in New South Wales. One site in UK specialising in archival quality gear wanted a reasonable £2.86 a pack, but postage was £10..............
So I know they are out there, but does anyone know where?

    Hi, I think they sell them in John Lewis. Not sure if they're the lick and stick variety but they had black and silver ones in the Sheffield store's stationery department

    i got mine in the range - they are all sticky already on a sheet and they have lots different corners - i got silver ones for a baby book i made, but have used white ones too in a blackphoto album.
    think this linkg should work for you, if not just type in photo corners. i think they are really good, and really finished off my photo albums!:j
