I ended up with this beautiful design just to hold them for a quick view... and since it "ain't broke" I have no intention of fixing it. Yes... it's construction paper and painters tape.
Thank you Erick. So you simply have card pressed against glass and "floating" on a construction paper background, which is backed by a spacer that is taped to back of mat? I like "ghetto builds" , especially when they look as good as your display!

Default great stuff

There are some amazing displays. Well done all! I am getting divorced and moving into my own place later this month. These have been very inspirational and are food for thought on how to renovate the basement and office.

Overall very impressive! I made some custom cabinets for my collection to hang in my "man cave". I am an early riser and almost every Sat. morning I get up early get that first cup of coffee for the day and just walk the room like a museum. It's on the few times in my busy hectic life I have complete silence in there (3 kids).
I bet your room, with those cards, on those displays would give you that same sence of "man how did I get all these cool cards" that I get.
Again very nice and thanks for the extra pics. Truly breathtaking.
Drew
