My Newly Framed T206 Cards!

Tex · #1 09-15-2009, 06:36 PM

I finally got around to having some of my T206 cards framed and thought I'd share!

The coolest part: The frame is custom made to hold SCG slabbed cards (the black around the cards is the actual holder), and the back is removable so I can swap cards in/out as I please.

I'm pretty excited about it. My master plan is to have two more frames made: One for a set of four 1933 Goudeys, and one for a set of four Cracker Jacks. If you'd like to help, see my wishlist below.

nice, did you do that yourself or was it bought that way?

Had it custom made at a local frame shop.

Very nice, that's a super way to enjoy your cardboard.

Any way we get the name and contact info of the frame shop? i'd like to get something similar done for psa holders. three frames holding 4 cards each with the large matting would look great side by side.

Kelly's Art and Frame in Alexandria, VA. It cost around $200. I didn't shop around, I'll gladly pay anything reasonable for good and trustworthy service in this city.
