42. We never used "billfold" that much it at all

If it could hold money and any type of card (had slits for driver's license, credit cards, and even an insert for photos, etc), it was a "wallet"!

Alternately, one of my uncles loved to carry around a wad of $100 bills and he would put THAT in what I would call a "billfold" - basically something that was a long narrow cover (usually leather) with a metal clip on the inside running across the center, where you could fasten a wad of paper currency, and then fold the whole thing in half to slide in a pocket.
