Default Displaying vintage cards (T206 & Old Judge) and lighting? OK or not?

I have displayed my T206 Walter Johnson on my fire place mantel in my living room is this bad for the cards image/color over the long run....the lights I use are 60 Watt light bulbs? FYI...The card is in a BVG holder.

I wanted to do the same with my Old Judge card but am nervous with cards so old...just do not want the image to get any worse with fading.

As a collector of history I have a sens of duty to protect these cards the best I can at the same time enjoying them to the fullest...a safety deposit box is the best but then you never get to see your cards.
