That's what I thought too.

Do you mean "comb binders" (finally found after some googling...)?

They might be less prominent, but still recognizable.

Some spiral bindings might be worth looking at too, especially if the 
spirals are less prominent than the holes. Something like this:

I'd like to see a more detailed image for larger versions, but still 
stylized like all our branding material.

If anybody has the time to volunteer for a first draft of one or another 
binder image (sorry, Jaron, that you can't :-( ), this would be great!

Best regards

Bernhard
