Cataloging/Displaying your Type-Card Collection

[jimivintage]

Hey folks,

I started a very modest type-card collection awhile ago, but before I get too serious with it, I was wondering how some of you collector's catalogue and display it.

Traditionally, I use Excel (actually now I use Numbers since I have a Mac) to keep it organizationally sound, and I keep a file folder with respective pics. However, right now the cards are just in a box. Not a big deal because my collection isn't very big yet, but as it grows and I start getting into rarer cards with strange variations and tough backs, how do you guys not lose track of what you have? Do you place cards in sleeves/top loaders with a sticker on it indicating what it is, or do you have another method that works so that when you pull out a card you haven't seen in awhile, you aren't having to rush to your Excel sheet to remember what you have. LOL

Any thoughts, pictures, or screenshots are welcomed in this thread!
