I love the display!
I had a similar thought process a couple years ago...I wanted to collect and display some t206 cards, but had a limited budget.
So, since I'm a lifelong KC baseball fan, I decided to put the Kansas City Blues (minor league) team set together. With only seven cards and one HOF player, it fit the bill.
I also wanted to a make custom matte with artwork to match a t206 cigarette brand, so I landed on a Piedmont design.
I made a longer thread about this process a few months ago, but here are a couple pictures of the end result.
Since I intentionally made sure I acquired a few different back variations, I mounted mine in trimmed down card savers behind UV glass, but cut holes in the back matte too so you can still see the backs. Here is the finished project, front and back:
