I keep my most valuable cards off site however before I take them away I make a copy of them life-size on good photo paper and that copy goes in my plastic sheets in my albums. You would be amazed at how lifelike the copies are, they look exactly like the card, my card, with every little crease and flaw. Works great!!! This way your cards are safe, but you can still "look" at them.
