ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A self-aligning sleever for inserting photograph slides into pockets of an elongated web of sleeving material having a plurality of rows with a predetermined number of pockets per row and spaced from one another by a predetermined row spacing distance. The web of sleeving material is supported for movement in a direction perpendicular to the rows of pockets by a chassis base . A slide shuttle removes photograph slides from a hopper and moves the slides to a first position on a slide support . Photograph slides at the first position are moved to second and subsequent positions in a row corresponding to positions of the pockets in the row of slide sleeving material . A slide counting mechanism mechanically counts the photograph slides moved to the positions on the slide support . Pocket opening means such as coil springs arc the slide sleeving material to open the pockets of the row into which the photograph slides are to be inserted. A slide pusher is actuated when the predetermined number of slides have been positioned on the support means , and push the slides into the corresponding pockets of the row of sleeving material during a first stroke portion. During a second stroke portion the sleeved row of photograph slides and sleeving material are pushed beyond the pocket opening means by the row spacing distance so as to align a next-adjacent row of pockets with the pocket opening means and slide support . A sleeve clamp clamps the sleeving material with respect to the chassis base during the first stroke portion, and releases the sleeving material during the second stroke portion.
