Posted By: <b>Jason</b><p>What is the one single most needed way for you guys to be able to display your cards? I am looking for a really neat way to display my graded cards. Yes........I have seen the racks with one big glass door that you can hang on the wall and close, but is there anything out there that is massed produced that displays really nice? If any of you guys had a really cool way to display your graded cards and do so in a super classy way, would money spent be an object on the method? I am looking for any suggestions. If so..... would there be a reasonable demand for such a piece? Thanks for your input.<br /><br /><br />Jason<br /><br />edited for spelling typos

Posted By: <b>JK</b><p>Ive posted these several times before, but I like the old fashioned album method. I think it works great with slabs, cards are easy to look at, but you dont have any concerns about sunlight exposure, etc.:<br /><br /><img src="http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e211/jkrasner2/DSC00661.jpg"> <img src="http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e211/jkrasner2/DSC00660.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Jason</b><p>Very nice! I have seen that before on other posts. I was talking more in terms of display on walls, in the open etc. I was trying to get a feel for what would be a great product that shows really nice that everyone would like to have to diplay their slabs.<br /><br />Jason<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dave Williams</b><p>In regards to this question, what effect will ordinary room lighting have on fading items that are on display?<br /><br />I've got a lot of items framed on a wall in my office, and the lighting is fluorescent?<br /><br />There is no natural sunlight that gets in?<br /><br />Will they fade from fluorescent or incandescent bulbs?

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>There are lights that can be bought to address the uv output, which hastens fade. And there are plastic filter sleeves made to fit over a fluorescent tubes (kinda like a long thin tube with a long slit down the side). <br /><br />If you're framing something you can get uv treated glass in the frame, that would help.<br /><br />What is best is to keep the cards out of continuous light.<br /><br />I bust my graded cards out, if I'm keeping them. They go in small boxs, some are in sheets in ring binders. I get them out when I want to display them to someone... Seldom are the cards in light.<br /><br />Maybe you could make good scans of the cards, print that on good photo paper, and frame that.
